Yeah, those had locks too. But only one per wheel and all were the same.

Seriously, that's my nightmare. I've woken up plenty of nights running to the window thinking I hear noise outside. Sometimes I play shadow games with imaginary thieves and park the SC in the garage. I also have a different wheel lock on every lug...and some of them are very unique. It drives me crazy when I change over to winter stockers or get a flat.

Glad you got a new set that makes you happy. Try the Dency 2000 lugs. They are a little pricy but well worth it. I've got a set on each corner along with a few Mcgards, gorilla, etc.

To the OP,
Sucks to see this type of kid stuff happen, but your car is definitely a hot target woth those bbk, coils, exhaust, 97 kit, and probably black interior.
Goodluck
