Just wondering if anybody could recommend some locking tuner lug nuts and where i can get them. I dont really feel like paying $40+ each from the dealership, just picked up some new summer wheels and the oem lock lugs will not fit.
Thanks.

Wheel locks only keep out honest people. Save your money. Nowadays you rarely see wheels stolen on the side of the road. It just as easy to steal the car and chop it...

Most tuner lugs also have a special key you have to use as well

At best locks slow down or deter someone from bothering with the theft. Thieves are basically lazy, they move onward to an easier situation. I ordered mine from the USA at half the price of the Calgary dealer.... not that I saved anything as I spent the rest of my "savings" on another item.

I wouldn't bother with locking lug nuts but anybody can go out and buy a tuner key, and I've had issues before with somebody trying to steal my wheels on my new car, Was missing 3 lug nuts, and all the rest were loose exept for the key on one wheel, and when I had bbs RC's on my Jetta you could tell somebody tried taking a wrench and hammer to get off my center caps to get at the lugs, some people these days :rolleyes:

Wheel Pro's on Edmonton trail sell mcGard from$39-$69 depending on the style. or you can get a full tuner kit for like $80 (Any colour). But, it kind of is a waste of money unless you need tuners to fit the holes on your wheels.
