I do not bother with locks, if they want them bad enough, let them take a shot.. besides i got 5700 miles on my car since May of 02, my car is garaged and when I go out the whip is not far from me eyes and ears.

trying to get a lil V-I
but you also have to factor in the fact that some lugs weigh different than others. I've heard that the weight is significant enough to make a difference 
Anybody else done this?
Also what's a good online store to buy "tuner" lugs? Or locking lugs.

I have 2 sets of lock nuts on my wheels, and yes I agree with Smitty, I pray I don't get a flat!

All (20) locking lugs are identical so it’s perfectly balanced.
And the locking surface is on the SIDE so they can’t be hacked from the END like most locks.

The lock is usually HEAVIER then the other four lugs and that can screw up your wheel balance.
