I am trying to find out who makes open ended wheel locks so that i can add wheel studs to them. I already have an idea of which lug nuts to get but unfortunately all the extended lug nuts i have seen do not come with a lock so therefore I need to find seperate locks unless someone can direct me to some extended lug nuts that offer a lock with it.

 

look in the sponsors forum, i picked up a set of muteki? (i think) open ended locking lugnuts for like $30 shipped.

edit: found it, https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=770763 just send him a pm with what you're looking for.

edit 2: what you want, https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=674227

 

thanks. are there any other brands that might make longer lug nuts that are locking?

 

why do you need longer lug nuts? longer studs doesn't mean you need longer nuts.

 

If he has a closed end lug nut that is standard in length, it will bottom out on the stud before you can torque it down. You would need a oe lug nut. I manage a huge wheel and tire shop in AL., but I deel mostly with 17"-26" stuff.
I also have them, you can feel free to call me if you want, I ship as well.

I know, thats what I meant by oe (thats what we call them-my fault) OE not as original equipment

 

i didn't think the need for an open-ended lug nut was ever in question.

 

damn, i made this exact same post in this forum last week and nobody even replied.

 

I am also looking for open ended wheel LOCKS.

The Mutekis are not locks - they use a key that is easily available on Ebay and fits lug nuts purchased from many different places. They are just spline drive lug nuts, nothing unique about them.

 

mcgard makes some, I just bought a set. Only problem is the key isnt quite long enough, so you will have to drill a 13mm hole in the end of it.

 

Thanks for the info on the McGard locks!
Do you happen to remember the part number so I can order them?

ill get it for you tonight. I'm at work right now.

 

the part # for the Mcgard open end locks is 78631N. Just note that you will have to enlarge the small hole on the end of the key (possibly)
