Model 3 Locking Wheel Nuts

Hello

Has anyone invested in locking wheel nuts for their Tesla?

Nah, don’t think the demand for stealing Tesla alloys is that high.

In any case, they’ll be easy to find again when they’re listed on eBay/gumtree.

Fair point thanks.

Not only is there little demand, but wheel locks are easily defeatable in 10 seconds with a 3/4" socket and a sledge hammer. Lots of youtube videos on this. If someone really wants your wheels, a wheel lock isn't going to stop them.

This happened all the time at a tire center I use to work at. Owner lost the key to the locking wheel nuts. Get a socket slightly smaller than the lock, hammer it on and remove......

If you have the 18s then just keep the Aero's on that should be enough of a deterrent for anyone!
