do you want every lug to lock? or do you just want normal lug nuts w/ one locking lug?

Re: locking lugs

Are you planning to use these with Honda/Acura wheels, or with aftermarket wheels? (YES, it makes a difference.)

Re: locking lugs

Great, then look for locks with a conical (tapered) seating area. That's what most wheel locks have, other than the Honda-branded ones they sell at the car dealer.

I think you misunderstood OJ's question.

Most people get one locking lug nut per wheel, and the rest of the lug nuts not locking, since you can't remove the wheels unless you get the locking one off anyway.
