oh crap. i can't believe the car got jacekd at the block. i used to go there every week, the toy cops were hecka nice. they jocked my car hella when i had my old eclipse deck and subs in there. they watched my car real well as i was getting some krispie kremes and met up wid dis one girl. uhhh.. sux to b that guy, but what's with the, i didn't want go aftermarket because i wanted to get sick of the stockies part??? that doesn't make sense.

 

that's so messed up....
Poor guy
=P

 

lesson learned..
locks are about 25 bucks..or tuner lugs...$100
new wheels are $1400..
you do the math

Where can i get those locks? Are they standard for all types of wheels or no?
Thanks
Andy

 

the $25 bucks or so..one are avail at your local parts store. the dealers uses mcgard wheel locks. they work pretty good for stock rims. but for tuner wheels and the $$ rims get some lugs that needs a special key to undo all of them. if you have $$ rims they can unbolt the 4 lugs (if 5 lug rim) and rock the wheel back and forth until the last wheel stud breaks off. with all 5 lug locks you are a lot safer.

Dang, wat a poor guy. i am glad i had the dealer throw in a set of wheel locks for free when i bought my wheels. I goto the block almost every weekend...

 

on my wheels i got wheel locks, but i also kept the stock lugs. The reason for this, and not getting tuners, is that you can only get them off with a very thin walled socket. The normal lug wrency and most other sockets won't fit in the hole.

 

if you only have a couple lugs on tehre...theywont do squat. all it will do is slow down the thieves. i know guys who have stolen stuff before, and I asked them how I could keep my wheels on my own car, they said that locks just did ****, and slowed them down, if at all, it'd **** them off more.

 

ay mingo, you live in OC? dayam but that sucks, well i guess i won't be taking my car there anymore or its just drive through kripy kremes and movies, gameworks somewhere else.

 

righttttt...then i can also steal your ENTIRE car with the wheels and take my sweet time to take EVERYTHING off. catch my drift?? what your aiming to do is "slow them down"...if you put $3000 rims on your ride and lock them w/ one lug lock you'll be asking for it. but for stock wheels one is pretty much ok because the thief can go to another car w/o locks and take those exact same wheel off.
you can have the top of the line alarm,security and etc..it only slows them down..that's what u want to do. nothing is thief proof..if it's on the street you just want to deter the thief...but if they want it bad enough it'll be gone.

what'r turners?

 

Crap.

*scribbles note to self: get TWO sets of locks for each wheel*

tuners = in this case, are special lugnuts for the wheels that use a non-standard socket to remove them.
