wheel locks??
i have racing harts and was wondering if there where any type of wheel locks that fit these type of wheels? I dont think the centercap really acts as a good enough lock for me... i was also thinking about picking up this ones anti theft device at honda.... its like a claw that goes around your wheel and locks......

There is a special type of wheel locks that fit under Racing Hart's center caps. I have them and they work well, but the only thing is, the key is a little short...so when you screw it in or off, whatever wrench you use will kinda scratch the side of your bolt hole.

I have the same problem, right now I don't have any locks on mine besides the centercap and the irregular sized lug nuts that the wheels came with. I think we need some type of acorn shaped locking nut, but I haven't found any yet and the shop I got them from couldn't find any either. I figure I have insurance anyways, and if somebody wants them bad enough they are gonna get them, locks or not.

I totally don't doubt this...in fact it's true, but I think wheel locks aren't useless, they do serve their purpose to some extent. IMO

Hey you guys with the Racing Hart's, I'm going to be getting the CR's in the spring and I want to know if the stock lug nuts will fit the wheels, or do you have to get aftermarket lugs? Also, is the bolt patten for the 4cyl accord 6th gen 4x100, or 4x114.3? The W2 is in, tax refund time!!!!!!!!!

my stock lugs wont fit, they sent me lugs with the wheels along with the wrench that fits around the centercap......
i have been looking everywhere for wheel locks, and i found McGard has these Tuner ones that are supposed to fit aftermarket wheels but i dont know what size the hole is in each wheel......
They have this alpha lock thing at honda (see picture) i am actually thinking about picking up one of these just to prevent/slow down a theif from stealling my car or rims, i also have a car alarm too... but i am thinkin about gettin one of these
