Default Wheel Locks for OEM Wheel???

So I plasti dipped my wheels yesterday and put them back on today. I like the look of not having the center cap not on the car, but I dont want to have an open invite to thieves to try and jack my wheels even though I might possibly live in the safest area in America lol
So I found wheel locks here The Chrysler Parts Store, Chrysler Accessories and Auto Parts Store : Wheel Locks - 82208313 [82208313] - $59.00$48.38
But thats pretty damn expensive since that's a per wheel price. Do I have any other options in wheel locks to protect my wheels from thievery? I tried searching for awhile, maybe I'm missing something idk. Help is appreciated guys.

No, that's for the whole car - one locking bolt per tire/hub !

My car (bought from a private seller two years ago) came with that set. I have one special bolt per hub and that socket (which I carry in the hidden pit, next to the jack handle).

OOOOOOOOOO I didnt even think about that. Obviously if you can get all but one bolt off the wheel, the wheel wont come off. Genious, ordering a set asap. Thanks!

Further question!? Does anyone know the size of the lug bolts? That way I can buy red lug bolt covers so it matches my calipers

I asked that question last year (but can't remember WHY I asked it) - don't remember the answer but I DO know the answer is here.

You might do a search for posts by me or a search of "lug bolts" or something like that.

Look in this very forum area. It's here somewhere...







PS - I know, I was gonna replace my locking bolts with standard and needed to know what to order.
