wheel locks - 8/14/2008 6:19:01 PM    honda_man   Posts: 10 Joined: 2/29/2008 Status: offline  Opinions wanted. Just bought a set of TSW wheels for my 08 accord EX, (pix coming soon) but, forgot to order wheel locks. Now am having a hard time finding them locally.  Are they really theft proof (or resistant) and worth it???  My OEM wheel locks don''t fit. Thanks 4 ur responses. Post #: 1

I think they sell them on Summit Racing. _____________________________ 2006 Scion TC (ZPI-18G pending) 2000 V6-AT (RIP 3G) Temp Search thanks to Finch13 (in reply to honda_man) Post #: 2
