Fellow Z owners: A call for help.

no prob. At the very least it's piece of mind that the average joe isn't going to be able to get them without a fight. If at all. LOL

EDIT * LoL yeah. $400 for piece of mind on my G2's which were $3200. Fair trade. And if you do the math that DM gave you. 50 for 4 wheel locks x 5= $250 and you can only put 1 on each nut.

eastwest2300 · 09-27-2013, 03:45 PM

Yeah, its an investment.. I'm gonna have to save up, Im in no hurry, and with your help, I know what Im looking for, thanks man!

4-6k you say?

Some one come steal my oem sport wheels please! I'll even leave four jack stands out for you to use

Sorry to hear op. Really sucks to these threads popping up, and for oem wheels is even more senseless. I bet they're going to use on on a different car, there was a thread recently with some honda accord flossing the Z sport wheels, you should keep an eye out for them on another honda around your area.

Yeah tell me about it. I think I'm going to start dropping subtle hints at car meets and hope they go missing

OP. My personal choice would be wed sport sa55m's black and blue.

DAMN where can I get those VOLK locking lug nuts?!? At this point trying to tell me that locking lugs aren't worth it? forget it. I will gladly do whatever it takes to deter this from happening again. And those 2 key system Volk nuts look like a great start.

Voice59 · 09-27-2013, 06:42 PM

Just type in the name on the box in google and they'll come up. They only downside to them is if you want your lug nuts a custom color it'd have to be hand painted. Can't powdercoat'em without damaging'em.

Tribalpinoy91 · 09-27-2013, 06:48 PM

About that, I did and only sites I've came across looked really sketchy and I generally do not like buying anything off ebay, it just has that "stigma". Where did you purchase yours from and was it like a special order part from japan? I can't afford to wait weeks lol.

It was a long time ago and I don't remember exactly where I ordered'em. I think it might be the upgrademotoring one...simply because it looked the most legit.

Just make sure you know which one and what size you're buying.

Volk Racing Formula Lugs is what you want...scroll down on the first link.

The second link I'm not positive on...but the product is correct and the price is in the right range. I'd probably use the first link though.
