wheel locks

Well I've been looking for locks for my 2005 screw and have come up empty handed. Ford tells me they don't have decorative locks available yet? has anybody else run in to this problem? If not where did you find them. I typed in "wheel locks "in to the search and got nothing. They need to be decorative type because the lugs are exposed on my wheels-Roush 20's.

Actually Gorilla locks have been know to wasily bypass. They use a socket and hammer it in and it will turn.
I use thin sidewalled one of a kind locks that you need a code to reorder a key for. Eack lock has its own code which the manufacturer only has as well as the owner of the lock. It needs a special socket to fit into the lug hole which you attach to a standard socket or impact wrench.

Would you care to tell us the brand...or is it a secret?

Thanks. The only problem is that the Splinedrive kits only come with 16 lugnuts and 4 locks. Since our wheels have 6 lugs, I need 20 lugnuts and 4 locks. Where would I get the other 4 lugnuts to match?

Dave,

Just a couple weeks too late. I bought some of those Gorillas for my truck, but they're too long to fit under my center caps
(had to get open ended ones).

Anyway, I got mine from Summit, so I sent them back already. So, Summit has them for sure. Also, I think SpeedMerchant on Lincoln carries Gorilla (bought some from them years ago). Might want to give them a call.

Oh, and America's Tire stores are authorized Gorilla distributors, too.
