don't steal my wheels please!
just bought these for my new wheels
Amazon.com: Gorilla Automotive 61631 Acorn Guard Locks (12mm x 1.50" Thread Size) - Pack of 4: Automotive anybody have experience with them? did some research before purchasing and i heard they were the best wheel locks due to the spinning outer sleeve. |
What I want to know is why Amazon's Part Finder tool says of this item:
"This product does not fit your 2012 Honda Fit" Amazon seems to only recommend the OEM wheel locks. Does anyone know why? I will have to park my Fit on the street here in Boston, so i want to get some wheel locks for it. (Haven't taken delivery of the car yet. 2012 Sport AT.) |
Lug nuts are designed for certain style seats built into the rim. Not by model. Oem locks are a ball seat most aftermarket locks and nuts are conical and wont seat properly.

I wouldn't waste money on locking lugs. Most of the keys are the same and wont stop anyone who steals wheels regularly. You're better off with a quality alarm that has shock sensors.

Gorilla only makes a more generic wheel lock (no sleeve) for the original wheels. |

Just picked up my Fit Sport today, and the dealer threw in a set of Honda wheel locks for free!
I know these locks are next to useless against dedicated thieves, but I still feel better knowing they are there. If I can find a set of aftermarket locks that fit the stock wheels, I think I will add them too. |
