The search function is acting weird right now and not returning results. I am just curious what kind of secure lugs you are using? Thanks.

I just have stock bolts. No locking nuts at all.

ditto...plenty of nice rims out there that would be stolen before my stockers.
Well, I am asking since I don't have stockies on. On my other cars, where lug nuts are used to bolt the wheels on, there seems to be more options. On the MB where the lug bolts are used, options are scarce.
I realize that if someone really wants your wheels, locks will at best slow them down. Still, inquiring minds want to know.

I have RAD wheel locks. I don't think they would be much of a deterrent for a persistent thief but they are priced cheap enough I figured what the hell. They are (or were) a sponsor of this site so some searching should reveal contact info.

I have an attack cat that sleeps in my wheel wells. Anybody comes and messes with my rims, they get rabies.

i didnt care for locks.. having it or not wouldnt make a difference, doubt anyone would steal my wheels and make it fit on a honda.. but the shop that did my wheels put locks on without my permission.. still mad at them
