Excellent Product June 10, 2010
Ricardo (New York City)
These locks are meant to perform a very simple task....to make sure that YOUR wheels and tires stay on YOUR car instead of ending up on someone else's. I bought these as a gift for my son whose BMW has a very costly set of wheels and tires. Probably on the order of $2-3,000 to replace. How can you go wrong by spending a measly $40 to protect them?
I've seen several brands of wheel locks and these seem to be of a higher quality than most others. The packaging (blister pack) was easy to open and, for some reason, is actually re-usable.
The instructions (if you actually need them) are clear enough and the suggestion to order a duplicate socket is a good one. If there's one thing that you don't want to happen it's to not be able to find the socket when YOU want to remove a wheel to change a flat or rotate your tires. Having a spare available can save you a potential headache....assuming that you don't forget where you put it. :-)
Where to keep the socket is something of a dilemna. Obviously, it needs to be in the vehicle. Yet, a would-be thief, seeing the wheel locks, knows that the socket is in the vehicle. So, do you put it in the trunk, knowing that a determined crook can pop it open in about 5 seconds? I certainly wouldn't. Where I suggested my son put it makes it easily accessable but is not a place that a thief would look unless he was tearing the entire car apart. No, I'm not going to give away the hiding place, so just use your head and find one of your own which isn't obvious.
The kit comes with a few stickers that show the serial number of the lock set. One is for sticking on the order form for the extra socket when you register with the manufacturer. An obvious temptation is to stick one somewhere on the vehicle which really isn't a good idea unless you're the kind of person who also gives out his social security number. :-)

THIS IS THE SECOND PURCHASE OF MCGARD WHEEL LOCK BOLTS. THE TOOL TO REMOVE COMES IN VARIOUS CONFIGURATIONS SO ITS UNLIKELY THAT ANOTHER WILL FIT TO REMOVE THE ONE LOCK BOLT ON EACH WHEEL. PURCHASED FOR MY BMW ALLOY WHEELS VERY EXPENSIVE TO REPLACE IF STOLEN. YOU CAN ORDER ANOTHER TOOL TO REMOVE SECURITY LUG NUT WHICH IS SUGGESTED. KEEP THE SPARE AS A BACKUP IN CASE YOU LOSE THE ORIGINAL. GREAT QUALITY, GREAT WARRANTY AGAINST RUSTING, GREAT PRODUCT. THERE ARE MANY IMMITATIONS BUT THIS IS THE BEST I HAVE SEEN
