Anyone recommend a brand/set of wheel locks that work well and look good on BMWs? I need a chrome one to match my standard bolts. I haven't been able to find any that look good and seem to be the right size.

y dun you just buy the ones from the dealer.. I believe they are in black and paint them whatever color you want to? Also there are some places that sell covers for the wheel locks maybe you can buy those and paint those aswell.. your move mate.

I had the dealer ones on my old M3 with 19" ACS typeIII 2pc wheels. They were just ok. The thing is they look a lot different than the chrome wheel nuts I have now and even painted, it didn't look right. Also I had my old ones with painted caps but it was really to scratch them. Just wanted to know what the options were. I saw the Gorilla ones but didn't find a set that worked for the BMWs.
