Locking Lug Nuts

Post by michaelgt »

Has anybody purchased locking lug nuts for their Vibe? I decided that I want to add them for security, but my Autozone could not tell me what I needed (their computer did not specify). What size/type/thread do I need. Thanks in advance.

Call up Discount Tires and order a set of 20 Gorilla wheel locks. Very nice quality and all 20 lugs are locking. That's what I did when I bought my wheels/tires from them. http://www.tires.com

Yeah, you can get accessories from them. One of my wheels hub-centering rings got cracked so I called them up and they sent me a replacement.

Thanks for the information. I called Discount Tire, and they said they had them in stock, but could not tell me what size I needed. They said to stop in, and they would take one off and make sure. He also gave me the sales pitch to by the road hazard warranty for my stock tires. He said many people do not realize that I you can purchase it for tires on a new car, and then they will do the rotation, balancing, road hazard over the life of the tires. However, I did not get there in time and picked up a set at Murray's Discount Auto.
