So did a search for wheel locks and got 25 pages.. made it to page 15 with little help. Maybe probably not using the right words for what I’m looking for?
But to make this simple—

i understand wheel locks are defeatable but id at least would would like added security.

In short answers what’s your particular brand you use on your jeep or site so that i can take look?

thank you in advance all!

I only use wheel locks on my spare as that is so easy to pull off. I use the Gorilla guard locks on that.

While nothing will stop determined enough crackheads, at least these will give them a challenge.

I don’t have wheels locks. They are either too expensive or too easy to break.

i've had a jeep stolen for the tires in the past, what a nightmare with the body damage on top of the new rubber being gone. i did not have locking nuts. i'm back in the jeep game again and looking to at least deter thieves if possible.
looks like a lot of people like the spline-type gorilla lugs opting for the 24 pack?
what's the thought on the spare, lugs or the bar type locking mechanism?
do mechanics and tire shops keep keys on hand in case you need to bring your jeep in and happen to misplace yours?
would these affect any sort of warranty, say with the studs? i know there are a lot of places that are hacks if they were to install these poorly for you.
