Default tire lock lugs

Just purchase a new accord EX and wonder if I should put on a set of lock lugs
for the tires, any suggestion?? If I do, how do I find out the size of lock lugs
I need and how much they would normally run? Thanks.

Unless its a 98 or newer I really would not waste the money. Accord wheels are really not wanted. I have never heard of them being jacked very often. If you really think you need it you can search ebay for a good deal or even a local auto parts store.

Actually the 96-97 EX's are the gay looking hubcap style alloys I wish somebody had stolen mine since I could have a least gotten insurance money off them. I gave mine away The 94-95 7 spokes are quite nice for OEM equipment.

EDIT: wow.....you learn something every day.......i just did some look ups.......i thought 97 SE's came with a fat twisty wheel that was gunmetal.....only because i had heard of those, and then saw some soccer moms driving around w/ them.....and yea, the 96-97 EX alloys make me want to barf.....

honda musta figured, "hey, the accord is OBDII now.....since they loost almost 10whp, lets make the cars come with ugly *** wheels"

Yeah the SE rims aren't too bad They don't come in gunmetal though. The soccor moms just never wash their rims so the brake dust becomes permanent and looks kinda like gunmetal when the sun hits them right Yeah, we who have the 96-97 models got PDTS by Honda
