Lot's of discussion about standard (or not standard) wheel locks.

If you don't have them, do yourself a favor now and don't wait until
you're turning blue for the dealer to step up to the plate.Put the darn
things on. Don't you think $30 to keep your wheels and tires with the
car beats finding your car up on milk crates or cement blocks?

Also, one of you had a bad experience with McGard, the manufacturer for
90 percent of dealer-supplied locks. My experience with them has been
very positive. I sell 10-20 sets a week, and the only complaints I get
are from dolts who can't find their wheel lock keys or left them in the
house and got flats and couldn't change them.

McGard makes them for the exact thread, taper angle, and shoulder
required for each popular application.

If you've got them already, do as Wayne Norcross suggested and keep the
key number(usually on a small manila envelope on the lug wrench) in the
house, should you need to order it separately.

Oh, and if a commercial outfit is doing your tire swaps or rotating your
tires and you've got wheel locks, make sure you tell them you only want
them to use a speedo and torque wrench, don't let them use an impact
wrench on the lug nuts and locking nut.
