RE: Wheel Lock Recommendation?
I've got Gorilla locks on my 16"ers. They seem strong and durable, and easy to
use. The lug head is cylindrical with longitudinal grooves spaced in a unique (I
hope) pattern around the circumference of the lug. The "key" is a cylindrical
tube with ridges running longitudinally on the inner surface, and a 17mm hex
head at the base, allowing use of the same lug wrench used on the other three
lugs. It is by design very resistant to bending off-axis, unlike some other lug
locks, so I think it'll last quite a while.

I asked this question a couple of weeks ago and only got one response.
"Wheels locks? I didn't know anyone used those anymore..."
Needless to say, I am still interested in a recommendation. I recall some
time ago that Gorilla locks seemed to be the preferred ones, but haven't
been able to confirm that memory.
File this one under "Me too"
Thanks,
