Wheel lock sizing
Hi all, can someone tell me what wheel lock size is correct if I have the appearance package that came with the 20" wheels? I bought a set and I think they are made for the 19" wheels. Thanks for the input.

Same wheel lock set - don't LOSE the wheel lock "key" and don't LOSE the wheel lock set code.. there are like 40 different contours to that lock set - and Roadside Assist does not carry in their service vehciles, shop tool only.

I bought a set of McGard and it seems to be too short for the 20" wheels. It does not reach so I can't even tighten them to the wheel.
This is the spec:
Overall Length 1.82", Shank Length 1.0"
M14 x 1.5 Thread Size
17mm Hex Size
Radius Seat Style Wheel Locks

I apologize - I had read your post as you bought the lock set at your dealer - and from my side wheel lock set is same length for 19" and 20" wheel size.
Do I now understand you bought your wheel lock set - made by McGard - at other than MB dealer - so you need to know correct size ?

What you need to know...
Under MB part# 6-6-47-0156 (Silver) rim lock set - $127.50 list with dealer net $95 - so that you know the dealer isn't ripping you off.
I have attached 3 photos - the boxed silver wheel lock set with key wrench - comp photo showing measurement - and a shot of the "code #" for this particular set and NOTE key lock code is BOTH the 3-digit large code PLUS 6-digit smaller code.
Hope this helps... keep the beat !
