I bought the Gorrilla Lugs from Discount tire, much more secure and didnt break on me lol.
wow thats good advice.........man i wonder if pep boys has some good lock lugs

oh i c thats good..........i think i may stick with these lugs then go and buy a set of 4 of the flush front key locks and put one of those on each wheel.....i called my guy at Advanced that delivers me parts and he said these lock lugs I bought are pretty good he uses them

what should I torque the lugs to anyways?

100 lbs?

Those wheels look nice I hope it equates to a free upgrade for you man. Sucks having your wheels stolen like that.

And on a smartass note... How are you going to see these on a red car. I thought your car was orange!? j/k

You know it!!
But, the unknowns weren't known for a while until everybody started to notice the unknowns. Now even the unknows have the unknowns. But it's not known exactly how many Cobalts have the unknowns, so it's unkown at this point. ...ahem

i cant wait either cant wait to leave work and get home to put them on



yea waitin on insurance money and waitin on my Rials
Hey man really nicew wheels! I'm jealous. About those locking nuts, the thing is that anyone can take a peice of semi soft metal, bang it in there and whamo! Instant key for the rest of your wheels. I know this cuz... well, i just do.
I like the ones that are the exact opposite of what you got, you know, the key goes on the outside. Those are better IMO, cuz they are harder to steal.
Lets say that when i was younger i did alot of extensive research on this matter.
