Best Wheel locks LugBolts?

I did a search and some of the stuff was a bit dated or not relevent.

I tend to not like these kind



I've had too many of those break or bend on me and a friend on his car for me to want and mess with them. Especially when i'm swapping wheels for an Autocross or working on the car.

So i'm trying to look for the Spline type or maybe Hex kind. If there are any others out there for our cars you've seen i'd appreciate any info you have.

Also if they offer any of these kinds in black or the original bronze that the MINI lugbolts come in it would be appreciated.

Thanx!

Those are sold at your dealer. I picked up the same ones from the parts department at my dealer - I think around $20.

I'll be in at the parts counter tomorrow picking up some new lugbolts, i'll see if they have these. Probably be too much to ask for a part #?

Sorry don't know the part #. I just went to the counter and asked for wheel locks. They gave me a small box - last one they had on stock.
