Rimgard Wheel Locks installed.......
Really impressed by these. Hopefully they never get tested! But if they do I feel rather confident

I like the idea, and they definitely look sturdy. I have 2 issues with them though:
1: Appearance. They kinda mess up the look of the wheel. 2. No aftermarket support. People steal OEM rims... sure. But they steal high $$$ aftermarket rims much more. My thoughts on this have always been "if the thief wants it bad enough... he's going to get it". That's what insurance is for. |

I liked your video review; very well done. I don't see how you can get any better wheel security than this... unless you have your car parked in a locked garage with an armed guard, of course. All in all it makes me very happy that I live in a city where wheel theft is not currently a real issue!

Years ago I had a $3500 set of Momo's on my car, along with 2 different sets of lug nut locks. They still got my rims... Of course, they took the whole car out of a parking lot, up to a deserted street nearby, and spent the time getting my rims. The PD found my car the very next day, in almost perfect shape, with nothing else missing but the rims. I say "in almost prefect shape" because they were kind enough to drop the car on its brake rotors & drums once they got the rims off. So there was some damage that needed repairing. I think that was their "F- you, smartass" gift to me. Yeah, insurance covered it all. And I haven't been tempted by aftermarket rims since. But I do still use lug nut locks... You want these rims? Go find another stock car like mine and take theirs! |
