What is a good brand? I want to get two sets so as to futther theft proof mine. I live in atlanta and worry alot. Some jackass went throught the lot last week and stole all the emblems off all the 96 and up civics. What the hell? Anyhow, i have gorilla locks already, but they're only about 4 months old and already rusted!! What junk!! All advice appreciated!!

McGuard (spelling) is a good brand. I've got a set of Enkei locks, Mcguard's, gorillas as well as a cheapy brand. If someone knows what they're doing then they're gonna get your rims one way or another...may as well make it as hard as possible. try to get different types of locks though, maybe this will slow a thief down a little. When I lost the key to my locks, I took the Maxima to a shop and they popped off all of them in less than 4 minutes...so I decided to put 4 types of locks on my wheels...4 different types on each wheel. I'm gonna get two other brands and alternate them every so often just to be on the safe side....

call me paranoid but they're gonna have to work to get mine....!

Get some Mcguards.

I see them posted on EBAY sometimes. I got mine at a local shop called Wheelworks. When you get some, just make sure that you tighten them by hand. Some locks will crack under the pressure of an impact wrench.

Go here for info=

and I think you can buy them here...but shop around for the best deal =
