Locking lugs

[larrys95civic]

I was wondering if I should get one for every lug or just 1 for each wheel? I live in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan so it's pretty laid back here but I go to Green Bay and Chicago.

just a kit, a wheel lock key then four wheel locks, one for each wheel

honestly they are pretty easy to get off, with the right tools that is...it wont stop them but it will slow them down

It will stop your average joe. Thats about it.

ive got spline drives on my wheels. and use two different sets wtih two different keys. you cant really stop someoen who is determined but you can slow em down

Best protection is what I have. Make ur car so low you can't get a jack underneath. They have to put my car on 2x4's or something before they can do anything to it

[n8ball2013]

or so high you cant jack it up. It takes my heavy floor jack to get my truck off the ground with the 24s on it.

Both methods work much better than locking nuts.

You can also get locking nuts that use a specific socket. So all the nuts are the same but need a specific socket to work if that makes sense.

I have 2 sets of those on my car

McGard sells both spline-drive and uniquely keyed locks. Both are good deterrents.

The spline-drives are probably easier to steal.

So basically one locking lug to detour the average jackass with a lug wrench, but not all 5 so that they screw up my truck trying to get them off is what I'm thinking.

mix it up put one of each on there it should take too much time and they'll give up
