Default Looking For GS Wheel Lock Key

I've been searching for the wheel lock key for my GS350 2015. But can't locate it.
I had assumed it Being near the spare tire and jump area or is there another place where it's stored. Thanks for any insight you can provide. Have never run into this problem before with any other car I've owned.

I removed my wheel locks right after getting the car, if someone wants to steal the wheels, they'll get them no matter what locks you put on them. It adds mere seconds to stealing wheels.

For me, that extra security is not worth the inconvenience of me having to dig out the wheel lock key every time I swap wheels, and also the road salt here erodes the wheel locks after a few seasons and they are prone to strip.

No protection FTW

Thanks all for the insight, I must not have looked very closely..... er34 you may be correct in the fact that it may not stop a thief from stealing the wheels, however it may deter the novice from trying.... I think that I would feel naked without any protection or deterrent of some type.
