Canadian Tire wheel locks?

Just curious if these generic wheel locks from Canadian Tire are alright to put on the stock Alloys. Are the wheel locks keyed different for each set, or someone can jack your wheels if they have the same wheel lock? Just want to know... since I'm one noob at wheel locks hehe.

Honda sells their wheel locks for like $45-50 bucks. Canadian tires are like 20-50.

The wheel locks should be different for each set other wise that would defeat the purpose of having a wheel lock.

You should check to see if these locks fit your rims, especially if they are aftermarket rims, with aftermarket rims you should not use the oem locks.

I'm just looking to get some lock for my OEM alloys... don't feel like spending $50 for the ones at Honda. If i can get it for $20 I'll take that instead. I'll see if they are made to fit OEM or not.

Tiretrends.ca sells wheel locks. I think they start at around $30.

I got the wheel locks included when I bought my civic and the dummy at the dealership left the empty package on the seat...they were the same ones that Canadian Tire sells...each set is different because I tried my key on my buddy's car..I looked for the package buy I can't find it right now
