i use the gorilla lugs and locking lug nuts on my challenger, but for the charger, I have been using the Mopar locking lugs nuts
Mag locks are like most locks. They keep honest people honest but a pro will have no problem getting past them.
that is correct sir, had to call them up about getting a replacement one time, they guy i spoke to at mcgard said to send him a pic of the key pattern and $25 and 3 days later I had a new key.
So for $70 thieves can continue stealing wheels... If they are real smart, they'll find out who has a set of replacement keys and steal that too.
Actually they make universal lock removal tools. I never had one but I knew guys that did. Face it, mechanics have to be able to remove them when customers lose the key or other mechanics bugger them up.
I just ordered a new set of black nuts, all non-locking. Like you said if they want them bad enough they’ll get them off.
I've never used the locking ones. The winter salt corrodes them to where they won't unlock and then getting them off damages the wheel.
