Works Great
Gorilla brand wheel locks have a design that allows you to put 60lbs of tourgue on each wheel without striping out the locking feature...OEM wheel locks use a weaker locking feature...that tend to strip out either during installation or as time goes by and repeated wheel/ tire changes...Gorilla locks use the whole socket feature to install...you cannot strip these out...even after repeated use..[...]

For my 1991 Honda Civic EX
Works great! Installed with a almost mint condition Si Wheels on my 91 CIVIC EX w/ almost new tires. These are better because it's harder to slide a pry into the wheel to break the bolt. Also, impossible to use a vice grip to lock and turn the lock because it's way in there. Great product! Yes the 1 star man complained about the dirty package but why would you keep the packaging anyways? Received mine sealed and brand new with new locks and dirty packaging.

Short but just enough to fit
I was looking for wheel locks for my Honda Accord. After removing an existing lug nut and did some research, I realize Honda is using "ball seat" or "radius seat" lug nuts. Wheel lock for this type of seat seems not commonly available in retail parts stores like Autozone or Pepboys (most common one is cone seat). You want to have the correct seat to ensure enough area of the seat is in contact between the wheel and the nuts.This wheel lock has the correct seat (for my Honda alloy wheel), confirmed by tightening one to my wheel, then removing it to observe that there are wide enough contact marks on the seat itself (not just one line/ring, but a band of a few mm wide).At first the nuts look too short, but having contact marks at the seat confirms that it is actually long enough to have a tight and secure contact with the wheel itself.The color matches with my old lug nuts (more shiny of course). It is noticeably shorter, but that's a way of showing...
