hi guys, just brought some new alloys and was wondering what the best form of security for them as i dont want em to get nicked! ive seen locking wheel nuts, and also you can get a tilting sensor alarm, just wanted to know the best option / pros and cons of the other ones
thanks in advance

i think locking wheels nuts are about as good as your gonna get. or if you wanna spend loads you can get a car alarm that can detect someone getting to close to it. if that makes sense.

Yeah, locking wheel nuts are the best thing because they don't cost a lot and stop people nicking wheels.

Locking wheel nuts are ample. But a proximity alarm on youre car is best... the ones that beeeeeeeeep a few times then set the alarm off.

fit steelies from a 1.1 instead - nobody'll nick those....unless they're nutters.

take them off at night and leave your car on bricks works

Yes. Dont buy cheapy ones anyone could buy. Get some rare-ish ones.
I got Race-X Ones, i think their a really cheap make. Anyone could buy these and use the key on your wheels.
