We've had gippos in the garden thieving alloy wheels again and i'm concerned i might wake up one morning and find my 924S on bricks, it's also in the garden under its cover for the winter. I think i've got the same hubs as a 944, so what locking wheel nuts do you all use? Porsche can get me a set for £40+vat. The issue is that they have to be aluminium like the original nuts, or the wheel balance will be affected, so i can't really get a set of steel cheapies from Halfords.

That's the set that I have, you get an adaptor that fits over the bolt when you want to undo it. If you ever lose the adaptor (like I did once [8|]) just pop down to your local Porsche Dealer as they all keep a full set of the 30 or so adaptors and you can order a new one once you determine which one you have
 
I will shortly have a set of the older key type ones available, as dear wife bought me a new set for Xmas! All 4 have their plastic caps, but I only have 1 key for them.
 
ORIGINAL: sulzeruk I may have a spare set as a car I had in for breaking had 2 sets on them! Alasdair

Two sets makes it harder to steal them (assuming you have nuts that cant easily be removed). If you only have one good set per car you can waggle them off... McGards are the best, in my experience.
