Locks for RH C5's

This question is mostly going to those people that own RH C5 wheels. I'm trying to find a set of wheel locks that will fit on this wheels, but I'm running into some difficulty with the lug size. I even took a trip out to America's Tire yesterday and bought a set of Acorn open-ended 12/1.5 lugs and they didn't fit. So, basically I want to know what all the other folks on this board use to lock their C5's. I know locks aren't 100%, but it makes me feel a whole better knowing that if someone snags my wheels, at least they were professional and not some random kid.

Thanks so much...

i got my rh installed at discount tire, and they offered me some lug nut locks for my wheels which i then purchased. i dont know which brand they are, but the locking mechanism is in the center of the lug nut so the key fits into the lug. they had to order them tho because of how close the outer cap is to the lugz. this prolly doesnt help, but i DO know that there are some out there if you look hard enough.

Even an amateur could get them off, its not hard at all. I asked my tire guy and he laughed and briefly explained to me how easily it can be done. You will need some tools though. Just go to part store or a retail race shop and ask them to test fit every kind they have. Thats your best bet.
