I know some people that have put 2 different ones on each wheel. I have one lock on each wheel and a tilt sensor on the alarm that remebers what angele the vehicle is at when it is armed. Unfortunately, most of the incidents I've heard about are when the car is either stolen or jacked b/c of the rims.

Honestly I don't remember the brand I have but I have 2 locks on mine. 1 lug take one keys while the other 5 take the other. That's how I set mine up. Others have 2 sets of keys for 2 lugs and 4 regular lugs that anyone can remove. I'm not saying mine cannot get stolen but it is more time comsuming this way by then (hopefully) my alarm would have paged me and I would have my bat in hand. :yes: :yes:

I have Gorilla wheel locks....I only have 1 on each tire.....since I have spinners it would take a long time to steal those rims....first you need a tool to take off the center cap, then a spinner tool to take off the spinner nut, then you need a tool to take of the spinner hub, you then finally get to the lugs, where you need the key for the locks:eek: ...they might as well steal the car, but then they have to get passed the alarm and get the car started with the starter disabled, then take off the club....a thief would be in therapy after my car:D

As if that wouldn't be bad enough, why don't you add a piezo siren to the interior? lol I was totally envisioning a thief having a rough time getting your stuff and going to therapy.
