Let us remind you that wheels are most often removed from foreign cars in the residential areas of Kyiv. In one night, intruders can leave several cars without wheels, placing bricks under them. One way to protect against such "craftsmen" is to install locking bolts.
Types of "locking nuts"
"Locking nuts" belong to mechanical means of vehicle protection and can be installed even at the factory. However, in most cases, cars come off the assembly line without them. This means that wheels can be removed from such a car with a regular lug wrench.
Locking nuts can be installed on almost any car. The main thing is to choose the right option. The price of a set for four wheels ranges from 50 to 600 hryvnias. Against the background of the cost of the tires and rims themselves, such expenses seem insignificant. But how not to buy useless bolts that intruders with skillful hands can easily unscrew?
Just as we did in the case of the tire fitter's confession, we decided to ask this question to specialists who deal daily with the selection and installation of locking nuts on wheels, designed to prevent their unwanted removal. How effective is this really?
