i always thought thats what a wheel lock was, a unique socket. And the unique key the lugs come with is for the locks. I know you have a set of volks, but have you looked at a set of RAYS DURALUMIN Lug Nuts?

ya ya but what im saying is they are easily removed by anyone with knowledge of a socket set. you can jaw a bigger socket on it and take it right off. with the set of mcgards i have, there are threads on the outside to prevent anyone from doing that.

i was thinking about the mcgard locks,
but when searching at ebay i found those unlock tools for the mcgard locks by accident
click here for this bad unlock tool

so my question:
are the mcgard locks still save? in the (german) description you can read, that it will unlock every locks from Simbolz, Blocky, McGard in 30 seconds

what do you think?


so i was thinking about buying a lock from
KICS Bull Lock Acorn Type Wheel Locks
http://www.racinglab.com/kics-bulllock-c.html

anyone has informations about those locks? are they more secure?
can i use them for the volk wheels?

thanks for help and advice

there are no steal proof locks. if a pro wants your wheels, they are gone. however- if the neighborhood kids, or an amateur wants to jack your wheels, the mcgards I have will stop them.

I really like it very much, it works flawless. Soft is soft and hard is hard and the spctrum between is really graduated.
It took some time to get ride high right, mounting wheels on and off... But it was pretty much forward. I had this in mind, and it helped even if I didn't do it that way. https://my350z.com/forum/brakes-susp...tall-pics.html

car is great, but...fenders destroy the lines of the car, and you need to lower it.

oem fenders and about a 2in drop and you are in business.

nice car risky

i think if you painted the cf on the fenders same as the car it would look better

also a little drop would really look good.

Default Hey...

guys. Good feedback. Honestly, I like the fenders the way they are for now. Also, re-read my post for a minute...new suspension is here. Going on next week. Nismo S-tune suspension and hot sways sitting at my place but I am on vacation. She's coming along, one piece at a time....

So these are the rims I'm planning on getting.. My question is what is the best offset to go with on the SF Winnings? Keeping in mind that I do want to drop the car soon also. so clearance must be good.

size I want- 19x9/ 9.5 in front
19x10.5 in rear

also best size tires, and how big would I have to get to end up rolling the fenders..

thanks all.. any info would be great.
