Wheel locks with spacers

[phat///M3]

As I will be getting spacers in soon, I was wondering what wheel locks you guys running spacers use.

Are there any longer ones available from BMW? Or are they all the same length? Reason for asking is I would like to keep the same bmw cap on the wheel lock so it looks like a bolt.

Does anyone steal wheels these days???? I thought that was a thing of the '80's??

I would assume they will steal them in the UK, but believe me wheels go missing in Spain quite a lot, couple that to the very bad way the recession has hit Spain and the growing unemployment rate.

It wont be long before it starts becoming more common, its a quick way to make money, if you know which wheels to steal.

If they want your wheels they will take them with the locks, but just dont want them to go missing if some amateur decides to have a go.

I got a set from my local tyre dealer. They aren't to hard to get hold of.

ive had nobody try to steal mine but then theyve got to catch me first:thumbs:

only thing i would do if your car is left out alot is NOT buy BMW ones but soemthing equally secure. BMW ones for pro thieves can be easy to steal as they have a set of keys (which most garages carry) to get off any BMW wheel lock. Many have been stolen with these

Not sure if longder ones are available from BMW. I ordered longer ones from RAD locknuts, they'll make them to any length you want.

ive have - mcgard M12 x 1.5 - part number 27112SU -

perfect fit for 10mm spacers :thumbs:

order online, no one seems to stock the longer ones in shops, about £30ish
