Do wheel locks come on C230K?
Do factory wheel locking lugs come on C230K? Mine is a few weeks away, but I didn't see any mention of it in my friend's manual, and I forgot to look at her wheels.

dont know about after market
My car has a strange type of lug and only one type fits into the narrow space. So I just with the OEM... which is really made by McGard I think... I would bet that the after market ones are fine.. as long as they fit. I used them for years on other vehicles and they are made by the same manufacturer.

Be careful with wheel locks because MB designs the e-brake into the rear disc brake on the C-Class. Said another way, Mc-Guard locks, or others, might be too long and will punch out (destroy) the rear brake.
