    Good wheel locks?

    I am looking for a set of good wheel locks, not the generic ones where anybody and their mom can go get a key to take out a lug, but somthing a bit more personal. There has been some rumors going around about people steeling wheels, and well, I want the best for my Borbets. I allready know of one kid who had 4 of his wheels taken while watching a movie at his friends. I havent pissed anybody off lately, so I doubt im a target, but just want to be safe.

    Blackforest has a stud kit that has allen key on the lugnuts.

    It could work as protection because who the hell else has an allen key like that??

        i've got "euro-locks" on my car. I can't find them online anymore but they have done the trick for me for about a year now.

                          are they long enough to use with a small spacer

                            The OEM locks with the key can be removed by a pair of pliers.
