I have a facelift roadster the original locking wheel nuts furred up and looked horrible, so I purchased a new set from toyota that furred up after there first winter,I then had the locking nuts chrome plated that looked great and they matched the other nuts but after a few wheel removals the odd bit of chrome has chipped away and I am forever fighting rust,finaly to get to my point I am thinking of replacing them for normal lock nuts which will look smarter as we are a fairly rare breed 15 front and 16 rear I feel it would be reasonably safe to run the car like this,has anyone else removed there locking nuts has anyone had theres stolen I know theres a risk but so is getting out of bed.
you assume you average theif is intelligent enough to consider that before stealing them
most tyre places aren;t, so i wouldn't count on it
