Wheel locks?

Man I've spent quite a bit of time looking for wheel locks. Do any of you guys have them installed on your car? A couple points...

- MBs need lug bolts, not lug nuts
- I need conical shaped bolts for my 360 Forged wheels, not the OEM ball bolts
- I want to get 20 for more protection and better wheel balance
- Ideally there would be 1 key for all 20 bolts

I've heard a lot about Gorilla wheel locks but just found out that all their bolts carry the same key. Some kind of "spline drive" thing. Turns out they're really just in the business of making locking lug nuts and regular lug bolts.

Any ideas?

RAD locks from Purems.com are some of the best. They're made in Germany by the folks that make bolts for BBS and OZ.

They come in dozens of lengths and sizes. Give 'em a call.
