Locking Wheel Nut Keys

Locking wheel nuts can be a simple yet effective deterrent for criminals who are trying to steal the wheels of your vehicle. They're like standard lug nuts, but with a cut-out in the middle to ensure that they can only be removed with the correct key. They are also designed in a way that they're more difficult to remove than standard wheel nuts which can be a protection against thieves.

The locking nuts come with a hexagonal edge on one side and a cylindrical end on the other. They are exclusive to the set that came with your car therefore you must verify first. They are usually stored for safe keeping within the boot (if your car has a spare wheel) or in the glove box with the car owner's manual.

Other places to check are the pockets for cards on the door or the centre console storage compartments - they may be in there because the vehicle changed hands couple of times.
