My new Rims are here and I need to get some sharp looking Lugs and some serious locks.

Any ideas?

What are the best ones to get? What brands? Where do I order them?

And what are the size? 12mm X 1.50..is that correct?

2006.5 xB - Center Line wheels in Black pearl with a tapered hole.

Should I get low profile stems?

Thanks! :wink:

Do you have any recommendations on the best brands and the safest wheel locks?

GORILLA!!!!!!!!

there are the best ever and can find them at autozone, pepboys, etc.

as far as safe goes they are only as tight as you put them on.

Thank you, Sir! :)

Do you know if wheel locks have a lot of different keys to them or could someone buy 4-5 different sets and be able to take most any set of rims?

Are the locks easy to bypass, or do they really offer security?

i put some on my truck and without the key they are almost impossible to take off. i say almost because i was out changing a tire for this Donk car and the owner didnt have the key. my and the stepdad had to make one lol. dont ask. because i dont tell. no one can really dublicate a key. but not easy to make or bypass they offer GREAT security

but to answer your other question. you can buy the normal lugnuts and pick up a thing of locking lugnuts to. they have one key in the package and its the ONLY key that works. like ex:

4 lug car: get the 4 sets of normal lugnuts and then get a set of gorilla locks. you will have a lock for each wheel and thats really all you need. if you want you can get all locks but then you would have 4 different keys
