Default Locking Lug Nuts

For the third time someone has tried to steal my rims and tires. Does anyone know of locking lugnuts that need an actual key to unlock? I seem to remember them for awhile ago but have been unable to find any. The locking lugs I have not are pretty much useless because they sell so many removers. The ones Im thinking of just spin around unless you unlock them

I remember those. But could not 4 the life of me tell you where to get some. Me personally I hate locking lugnuts if they want and cant get them off the just damage the wheel to **** you off. I think a pic of a pistol upside someones head on the window works great. LOL

I just use the ones from the auto store that have a special adaptor that fits in the cross wrench and then into the lug nut with a specific pattern. Mine have worked fine except les shwaub stole one

I got mine from Advanced Auto.. The Key is coded specific and can not be duplicated.. you have to know the code to order a replacement if you need one

Not what I got but it will slow them down.. if its inconvenient for them they will move to an easier target

good luck
