Question on Advanced Wheel Locks.

[First Stang]

I was wondering if anyone had these. I am curious if it is easy to torque to 150ft/lb. I imagine it may be a challenge to keep the lug wrench in place while tightening.

I would just get a set of the Mcgard wheel locks and call it a day. If someone really wants the wheel, the locks only slow them down. I lost my lock key socket and all I had to do was hammer a deep socket onto the lock to remove it. Just food for thought.

Agree with the losing battle. I dont park the car where it is not visible to bystanders. I also dont leave it too long. At least the Mustang will alarm if jacked up. Deterrence is our best defense. I went ahead and ordered a set to go with the Mcgard I have on. Its the price we have to pay to have nice wheels sadly.

I went ahead and ordered these in black. I had no issues torquing to 150. I believe it is a stronger alloy than the typical lugs. You Just have to make sure the key is fully engaged. I am running a McGard and this per wheel. The key however uses 22mm so you will need a seperate socket.

Do they sell extra keys? I really like to have a spare or two, just incase.

They do. They also have a registry in case you lose your original. I bought an extra nut since they throw away the mold after a batch run.
