My Type-S came with wheel locks. Don't they all have them? I guess not. Of course the dealership has them, but may be pricey.

Your local Acura dealer will charge you $55+. There's nothing special about them either. Made by McGard.

Gorillalocks is a good bet in the aftermarket.

The only real advantage if you want to call it that of the OEM wheel locks is that allegedly the dealers have a full set of keys so if your key gets lost the wheels can still be removed without drama.

Me? My TL type S came with OEM locks. I bought a spare lock and spare key from the manufacturer just in case.

He Chechoe,

Glad you got back on AZ.

Get those locks somewhere and get a four wheel alignment. Pronto. You've got major toe issues up front. (Hopefully it's just alignment......)

If you shred those tires I sold you cuz of bad alignment, you'll be one unhappy dude. Just my worth.

the Bro.

It won't happen until you are fully eligible, and maybe not then if I don't like what you post.
