Mcguard locking nuts are very good. Had them on my Saxo and lots of people reccommend them. Around £30-35. | |

Bit of advice, wouldn't spend less than £30 on them. Also get ones with individual security, not ones which can be taken off use the same combination/method. | |

which security locking nuts do you lot reccommend for alloy wheels? or are they all the same? |
