The 1st set only comes in a set of 4 so you have to order 5 of them if you want 20 wheel locks and getting them all keyed the same is next to impossible unless you order directly from Gorilla and pay almost $40 per set.

4 wheel locks will not deter thieves even with the spinning sleeve as it's still less trouble then dealing with 20 regular wheel locks.

I felt like tenderizing the person or persons who stole my GM Camaro cover right from the driveway, but all Wheels? Sorry dude. I could imagine how you must feel right now. You bet that I will look out for any suspicious set of polish wheels on the internet and forward it to you. Deal with your insurance and recover the same wheels. Good luck and make the best of this St. Patrick's Day.

I work for a Police Department in South Florida and I put out a post how this is a MAJOR problem in the South Florida area. A few weeks ago there were 5 camaros that had thier rim stolens in Miramar in one night. I suggest wheel locks to anyone that parks thier camaros outside.

Sorry to hear about that, but what balls to do this in front of your house in the open like that. Unless your in NASCAR that takes a while to do!
Yep...they got my neighbors Challanger's wheels and left it on the pavement-no blocks!
