Best alloy wheel locks ? - Lone Rangerover - 16-07-2012 08:19am
I have the 20" wheels going on my evoque shortly and I don't want them to go missing.
Are the oe ones what everyone is using or are there some better options out there ?
Thanks in advance

Excellent question. I am also looking to improve the ones supplied by LR. I have had some McGard on a previous car that were excellent. Not sure what size I need for Evoque though....

the stud sizes and threads are in the owner's manual

Don't start that debate over again or you will be banned!

i'm using the evo 5 wheel lock and they appear very similar to the OEM ones. just do a search on ebay on wheel lock and freelander 2 .... same locks

Can't find the sizes in the 'manual'

I thought the LR ones were not 'unique'. The proper McGard ones are unique to that set and there are no other keys in circulation. Do LR not just use a series of available keys?
Unless LR actually use McGard of course....
