Tuner Lugs... wheel locks...
Tuner Lugs... wheel locks...
So from my understanding... Tuner Lugs are not wheel locks.. they just use a different socket to get them off.... Are there Tuner lugs WITH wheel locks?
That is correct. Make sure when you get aftermarket wheels you find out if those wheels need the special lugnuts & socket ... and if they come with the wheels. (some don't)
'tuner' lugnuts are usualy a good bit smaller in OD than normal to fit in small diameter depressions in the wheel so you can't use regular sockets. The special tool is basically a thin tube with inner ribs at different locations, usually unique to the wheel manufacturer or seller, that fits over the grooved top of the tuner lugnut, and has a 7/8 and/or 13/16 'bolt' head end that you us regular sockets on.
They are pretty nice but if you have more than one kind can be a pain, not to mention the reaction from installers when you service those wheels.
