Wheel lock options for stud conversion

surlynkid · 10-19-2012, 12:29 PM

I cannot seem to find any open end wheel lock kits to use in conjunction with a 75mm wheel stud conversion kit. Does such a thing exist? They are all closed end. I am running 75mm studs with no spacers on ZCP rims, so I need open end. I already have a full set of 20 lugnuts for the track days. I just need a set of 4 for DD use. It is garaged every night, so maybe it is a non-issue, but if something exists, I am interested.

I wouldn't run locks. No need. It just introduces potential for difficulties in the future (lost lock socket, stripped lock nut, etc.). Do you see a lot of cars on blocks without wheels in your area? I just don't think people need to worry about it.
