Default Locking lugnut install kit recommendations
Hello everyone,

What are your best recommendations for a locking lugnut install kit for an LS460 and Vossen wheels? I don't want the lugs to stick out from the lug hole area. I assume I need something like a thin wall socket type but not sure if I need acorn seat or what. Be nice to have a great set that will last and not rust easily or at all.

Thanks!

Always had the best luck with Gorilla lugs... they have many different styles that will work - they are going to be acorn seat, 60 degree taper, small diameter...

Thanks! How about those newer gorilla locks with the spinning sleeve? Anyone have experience with those?
