McGard Wheel Lock M14 x 1.5 Model 24210 are too long, try the 24214.

This is the set I picked up. It worked great. They stick out slightly more than the stock lugnuts, but not much ..

Here are the Gorilla "The Original System" 14mm x 1.50 wheel locks I'm trying. Every lug is a wheel lock.

Part 71644N is for a 24 piece set. Part #71643N is for a 20 piece set. The 71644N set was cheaper on Amazon.com ($55 vs. $61) and gives me 4 extra should I ever need them.

Since the Gorilla locks are narrower, there is more room to polish around them. The key uses the same 7/8" wrench as the original lugs.



Below pic compares the Gorilla lug to the original


Below pic is the with the original lugs on polished wheels


Below pics are with the Gorilla locks installed on polished wheels

Those are good and I've had them on other cars but they can be defeated ofcourse they will have to make it more ovious but still. The ones I got and mentioned earlier on the thread have a metal guard that spins freely around if someone attempts to hammer a socket set piece onto it.

I just called http://www.summitracing.com/parts/GOR-61641/ and special ordered a set of 20 Gorilla Guard locks, keyed alike.

I just put them on. They look great.
