Locking Studs
Just bought my Matt Schnell spacers and it occurred to me that by fitting the extended wheel studs I will loose the locking wheel nut. How have you guys resolved this issue?
Thanks. |

Tons of aftermarket stud kits with locks. Tuner Motorsports has a high quality example.

Kics R40's or other aftermarket lugs. If you go with Kics R40's, Julius@Style77 gave me the best price.

I don't agree with the comment that there are "tons" available, the opposite is true IME. Locking bolts, yes, not locking nuts.
KICS seem to be the best/most readily available. As noted above Turner sells them along with several other places. Sonic had another brand that I cannot remember right now but you can call them and ask if you are looking for something less expensive than KICS.

Kics R40 or R26 will work or a less expensive alternative is Muteki SR48 lock set and you can get the SR48's to complete the set.

Will the Kics R26 work with 75mm studs? Open ended like the R40s?

You want to be sure and put locktite on the studs where they screw into the hub.

If a thief wants your wheels, he is going to get them regardless of your locks. Don't waste your time or money on them.

I ordered the Kics R26 and stud kit from Turner a few days ago, but they are currently out of stock on both. They said there's about a 2-3 week wait time before they get them.
