Anyone know where I can find wheel locks for the Cooper l6" run flat tires or what size and specs I need to know so I can order them?

They are studs and they are the same as BMW (thread and pitch). Try http://www.gorilla-auto.com/ for starters - and then check out your local wheel and tries shop.

Also, http://www.tirerack.com sells some mice locks.

I never liked locks as the keys can be lost or the locks stripped should an impact gun be used on the "untrained" mechanic.

Thanks for the info. I think I would worry more about returning to my Mini and finding out I have no tires to run flat on.
