I tried using search and didn't turn anything up regarding locking or anti-theft(not sure if I agree with that phrase) lug bolts. Anybody have suggestsions as to where one might order anti-theft or locking lug bolts for an e60 which has 10mm spacers installed? It's ok if the lug bolts are too long as I can have them cut at my local machine shop.
Thanks
Thanks

McGard Wheel Locks are pretty reputable. I went through their site and looked up applications for the E60 but it doesn't look like they have any extended lock bolts though:

Stock length is 1.00 inch (12mm x 1.50 RH).
McGard
Closest thing I found on SummitRacing.com is 1.311 inch,
which is ~ .08" short of what a 10mm spacer adds.
10 millimeters = 0.393700787 inch

Rad Wheel Locks
Alternatively, you can also look into RAD wheel locks.
26 millimeters = 1.02362205 inch, so a 36mm length should work with your 10mm spacer.
They have a 12mmx1.5, 36mm (36 millimeters = 1.41732283 inch) lock

They appear chrome/silver. Going to try and hunt down some black lug covers for them now. ![Smile](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/smile.gif)

You can but it's pricey. I think I paid about $75 to have 10 lugs powder coated black.
