Why bother ? How many people steal rims nowadays?

I thought about the same thing when I got my Volvo, and bought factory locks. After two years the key broke during changing tires. I had to drive the car with one winter tire and three all seasons to the dealer.

When I bought my Benz which came with the lock nuts. The first order I placed include four regular lugs to replace the locks. This gave me a peace of mind.

Nobody steal 18" wheels here.
Or maybe you have some expensive rims. Dealer sell the lock nuts, btw.

Good luck.

On Ebay you find a set of OEM locks for $90. Gorilla is about half price

But I agree with Howard, do not bother unless if you ride on fancy rims, and park at very un-fancy place.
