BMW has the best lock nuts I have seen, you lock and unlock them with a key. My bro had them on his bmw 318is 95 model (10 years ago) and if you brake them you not taking them off, you will have to cut the wheel off.Pete Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/40338-someone-tried-to-steal-my-wheels-yesterday/page/2/#findComment-604514 Share on other sites More sharing options...
