Love the Project Farm guy. But I think BMW's wheel locks are pretty good, I wish he had tested them. They are hardened steel and have an internal key pattern and if used with a BMW wheel, which surrounds the entire lug bolt, it is difficult to get any type of removal tool on the head.

Truth Bomb. A manual transmission can be set to "comfort", "sport", and "track" modes simply by the technique and speed at which you shift it; it doesn't need "modes", modes are for manumatics that try to behave like a real 3-pedal manual transmission. If you can money-shift it, it's a manual transmission. "Yeah, but NO ONE puts an automatic trans shift knob on a manual transmission."

This! Had two sets on my dream rims and I live in the 90's car theft capital of the world...which is making a comeback btw.
