There had been a few wheel thefts in the area. Any recommendation for wheel locks that work for 2017 18" wheels? I heard some locks are easy remove. Thanks

 

I have some gorilla ones new in box specifically for fords they have the big seats and all

 

There is a special socket that costs around $10 to $15, available at many auto parts stores, that will quickly and easily remove most locks. Had a set of wheels stolen about ten years ago. They left the locks laying on the ground, along with my car. Police could tell the wheel lock socket had been used. The said wheel locks with an outer portion that spins were the hardest to defeat. That was ten years ago.

 

Got these recently.

Probably your best bet. However, there's always a way to get them off. Most thieves are looking for a quick grab. The longer they're there, the greater chance of getting caught. The ones linked above are likely your best bet. An exterior spline can get a socket hammered on and will spin right off (countless videos).

 

Nothing to grab around the McGard locks and the lug nut holes on my rims are deep enough that there's no room to grab them with locking pliers or anything like that.

 

Thanks! Understand nothing is theft proof, but hope it may slow them down a bit.

 

wish they made a key that's one size! Tire techs at discount rounded mine by cramming a wrong socket on it ...only gives like an 1/8" to spin it

 

 

Just ordered a set, thanks!
