Wheel Locks
Hey!
I was wondering if anyone out there had problems with McGard wheel locks? I bought a set from a local auto parts store and they seem to weigh about 3x more than a standard wheel nut. Because of this my steering wheel vibrates at 120+ km/h.
Are the ones they sell at the dealer better/lighter?
Thanks for the help!

The dealer locks are made by McGard. If you want to be sure that they don't throw the balance off, buy a full set of lugs and locks. Mcgards did that to me too... I got a set of Ray's locking nuts, which all weigh the same and now have no problems.
