I ordered a set of Mcgard locks and they fit like that as well. Sent them back. Hopefully someone will make a set that don’t. I was going to order the Ford set but won’t now. Thanks for sharing this.

That is too far. You could put a pipe wrench on that.

I took a 2 week road trip from Wisconsin to visit my brother in San Jose, California, camping in my van. I parked in the street in front of his house about 2:00 AM, knocked on his door and said that I would sleep in my van instead of waking everyone. A little later I heard someone removing my spare tire. I grabbed my hatchet, opened the door, started yelling, chased him for a little ways, and went back to bed. I told my brother about it and he said that I should park in his garage. I said "I don't think that he'll be back", and left my van parked in the street until I left.

I take the wheel locks off every vehicle I've owned. Believe the thieves will get your tires if they really want them and cause more damage if there is a wheel lock.

I will take them off they look awful and sticks out by a lot. I mean I’m sure they will protect and discourage them thieves. they could have made them flush or even a tiny bit sticking out bits it’s definitely an eye sore.

My Ford dealer charged me $69 ish for a wheel lock. But when i checked all wheels, i did not see any wheel locks intalled, so i asked my salesperson and he said it does not have it. He refunded me the money. Does all trims have a wheel lock?
