I got a really nice set for my C55 off eBay for $16 bucks and they fit perfectly.

Yeah. Don't waste your time. Any thief that wants your wheels will get by a lock no problem.

True. They remove all the lugs, then pry the wheel to break the last lock bolt. That is what insurance is for.
If it gives you peace of mind, go ahead and buy them.

I was going to post pretty much what the two above me posted. Don't bother. They only seem to work on the owners who lose the key and don't realize until swapping over for winter.

Had the Lexus dealer remove the wife's before we even drove it home. Who gives a **** about 18" LS460 wheels?

Worse than that you can just pound a small socket over the lock and undo it.

Either front or rear wheels are no longer available on our cars, so insurance won't help much on that and they are very hard to find OEM ones in decent condition used. I would put locks on them anyways if it takes them 5 mins longer it's still a deterrence. MB sells wheels locks as well.

you can still get OE wheels for all the W203 cars. Also the insurance will give you the replacement value that you can put towards better aftermarket wheels. Chance are they will just f up your wheels trying to get the locks off then you'll really be screwed.
