Has anyone made any type of security lock for centercaps? Just picked up a perfect set of basketweaves with new centercaps, and I think it's way too easy to take them off.. Maybe a drill/tap somewhere on the inside with a security bit? Safety wire? A badass alarm system that sprays people with tear gas the second they twist that cap?

Kinda like the bolt/screw on this set of ESMs:
I was wondering the same thing for my set of euroweaves. And now I have a set of BBS RS rims and the center caps are easy to take off. I think it would take a bit of work to drill/tap a security bolt for these caps. Not to mention that it takes away from the look of the rims.
OP, with my euroweaves, I used to take the caps off whenever I parked in a not so nice place. I know it's not the answer you're looking for, but unless you want to drill and tap your nice set of rims, that's what you'll have to do.Comment

I have not tried this, but have thought about it:
Get a length of thin braided wire, like you hang pictures with in your house. Crimp on a thin washer (almost like those large connectors you get at an autoparts store for ground wire) So you take one end and screw the lug through that washer/connector, and the other end loops or otherwise attaches to the cap itself. Not a security measure, but more of a deterent of sorts.Comment
