Wheel lock question

I currently have one set of Wheel lock on my car (OEM Toyota McGuard lock nuts) and i am thinking adding a second set of lock nuts because my sister and dad will be parking the car in the ghetto area starting in May and I dont want to lose my wheels. I have a set of 15 inches Rota Slipstream

I am looking for lock nuts on ebay and should I look for Tuner Lug Nut Locks for a Honda Civic, or any vehicle that uses a 12mm 1.5 tuner lug nut???

Any help would be good, thanks in advance

Slipstreams use regular lugnuts. Just buy another set of Mcgards from some place like tire rack... tell them the make/model/year of the car they'll get you the right ones.

if someone is going to steal your wheels that have 1 set of locks on them, they will steal them regardless of how many locks you put on there. but if you still want that "added protection" you can pretty much put any wheel lock on there except honda locks. this is because honda uses ball seat lugs and everyone else uses cone seat. the best locks are either mcgards or gorilla locks. you can pick up a set of locks at most auto parts stores or if there is a discount tire co. near you we always have them in stock.
