Ok,
1. What kind of wheels do you have.
2. Do you HAVE to have close tolerance nuts.
3. What are you wanting out of the nuts?


What I mean by each question is...
1. No one is going to steal your 13's with mismatched wal-mart hubcaps, so don't spend more on nuts than your wheels are worth...common sense.
2. Would larger, ie. CHEAPER nuts work just as well for you?
3. Are you needing true protection, are you looking for color matched nuts...overnighted straight from japan...

takes a unique key so someone cant get it off without it. just remember neither can you so dont lose it!

The problem with these is that yes you cant lose it, so whats the best way to do that? keep it in the car(defeats the purpose) . or keep it at your house and if you need to get the wheel off for a flat or something, get it towed.

whats your point? do you think someone trying to steal your gram lights is going to be banging sockets onto all 4 of your lugnuts with a hammer in the middle of the night and wasting all that time?

or are you saying to get them off if you lose the key?

either way that looks like a massive pain in the ass what he was doing x4 wheels would suck balls.

anyways. if your looking for wheel locks for security, it would probably be easier for someone to steal your entire car, than jack it up and just steal your rims.

Maybe so, but if it works, it works.

Agreed.
