Default Chrome Lugs. locking ones




Hey in the last two summers I've gone thru two sets of locking chrome lug nuts which have rusted or discolored. I'm curious as to which you all recommend since I need a set before 2 weeks and I have yet to find a company that I can trust. Point me in the right direction please and thank you.

I've had the Ford ones for about two years now and they still look brand new.

nope not ford, one set came with the 20 rims ford sold me and the other i bought but both rusted after a few months......i just need a good pair from any good site, especially if they all need the lock not just one per a tire.

you should only put one lock per rim

more than that is waste

Here you go! 5 locks per wheel. Uses a special deep fitted key.

yeah but i buy the kits that use the same key for every lug so that all the lugs match, im paranoid like that and i dont trust one locking lug here, i'd rather be safe and at the same have them all match.... anyone know any good chrome sets? american muscle had one but not sure if they are rust proof?





thanks i'll check it out....any other opinions are appreciated too.

Here is the set I used, and no issues. All lugs are key type as seen in the photo, and they look cool too!
