Do I need any special wheel locks?
or it comes with some differnt size lugs so not many peopel can steal?

If I need special wheel locks, what do i have to buy?

thank you.

 

I bought the McGard wheel locks from Jason at www.performancenissanparts.com. They fit fine on my LMGT4's.

 

you cant use your stock lugs on the nismos. if you buy from performance nissan i think lug nuts are included (not sure about wheel locks though).

any of the rays lug nuts in the correct thread pitch will work also.

 

thank you, jacoughski.
i think i will get a mcgard one from performance.

 

NISMO LMGT4's come with BLACK LUGS and Center Caps...

PERFORMANCE NISSAN also INCLUDES the Lug Wrench Adapter with Wheel Purchase!

We also have NISMO LMGT4's available in BLACK and GUNMETAL

my nissan dealer gave me my locks when i got the lmgt4's. i dont remember who they are made by?? but my lugs are black, and my locks are silver. so the lock stand out alot! it took a little getting used to, but now i love it!

 

I used the standard wheel chrome wheel locks. I put each lock on the spoke with the Nismo name, so it looks the same for all wheels. The black lugs with the chrome looks OK to me.

I think you can see it in this shot.

OUCH! Poor Wheels!

I dont think those locks have the same contour as the LMGT4's...

YOu should be using these locks...

thank you DeeZee, lowrider and jason.
Since i don't have any lock for my wheels, i think i will go order jason's one.
thank you all for sharing information with me.
now, i know what i need.

 

Jason, here we go again. My Locks are just fine, thank you very much. I checked the contour, and while not being exactly the same, they are very close. The overall shape of the bottom sphere is the same, just not as deep. In other words, they bottom out just fine on the wheel, but don't come up as high on the sides as the other four lugs. My installer, and myself, made the decision that they would work perfectly. They look very much like the picture your displaying.

lowrider... not arguing with you at all... im just offereing a sugestion...

the black locks I posed above are a smaller diamter and blend in very well with the nismo lugs, they dont weight very much either... the bottom contour is exactly the same as the nismo nuts...

any way you look at it... wheel locks generally can not be used on a race course...

 

to tell you guys the truth, i like the fact that my locks stand out. consider it an anti theft device. if they were black, some dumb *** might get the car in the air, and get 3 or so lugs off before he notices he cant get the locks off! at that point he would probably mess up the rim just to spite me! at least if they see it, they know what they are in for!!

 

I've never heard of this, will they fail a tech inspection for a track day, or only full blown racing. Going April 2nd to Carolina Motorspeed Park. If I have to remove locks, this will be good to know.

Thanks.

 

Yeah, why does it matter if you have locks for a race course?

I can see if you're a pro driver you don't want it as you'd want to exchange tires quickly.

but just for a HPDE or club event, can't see it.

 

because most locks you can not torque down as much as regular nuts...
