Default Wheel Locks

For anyone who is in the market for wheel locks, the part number for McGard locks 24157 will not properly seat for the F Sport Wheels. Checked with amazon and they list same part number. Talked to parts department with my Lexus dealer and they stated it would not fit. Stated they could get the correct set for me, but recommended they not be used. They stated too many people misplace the key and that some tire shops using pneumatic tools strip the locking mechanism on the nut itself.

Default Wheel Locks

Unless there is a real theft problem where you live they are a pain. I took them off my wife's old GS as winter wheels were 19mm and summer lug nut were 21mm. I also broke a corner of the key once not having it seated right.

Looking to get some aftermarket wheel locks for my OEM 20" wheels, anyone knows what the lug nuts seat type is? Acorn or mag seat w/ washer?

Any particular reason why you're looking for aftermarket? The Toyota/Lexus ones are made by McGard.

Question Wheel Locks

Any recommendations? Everything I've found on eBay, including OEM, says they're not compatible with the 2017 RX which is a little hard to believe. Are there any after market ones that work well?

Thank you.

The ones that came on our '17 (ordered from the factory) were by McGard.
