When you buy yhtm you get a form to send away so you can re-order the exact key.

Without it your fuked mate....

I wrecked my McGard key today, probably due to overtightening, the bolt head was ok but the metal used to make the key is obv. a lot softer n it's f*cked now :mad: Not sayin they're crap, probs my own fault, but there u go. Anyone know where can I get a new key?? :o

Are locking nuts really that safe? Can they easily be taken off?
When i get a set of alloys i wanna know if their that safe cause it will be parked on the main road!
What are the best ones?

Thanks
