There gone! No one resells them. Crack heads would rather get $8 a pound from the salvage yard then resell a $500 wheel. I bet money these wheels like everyone else are already melted into a solid block.

We can't use wheel locks. No one makes one that will fit a OEM wheel.

Don't have wheel locks, I bought the gorilla locks from sfx performance after getting off the phone with the officer and insurance company.
Supposedly they don't even have the key for their bolt patterns.
Pretty expensive...

Those will not work. If you install them it will only be a matter of time before all 4 wheels snap off and you're driving down the road on rotors, or worse it kills you!

See the difference? You need a massive washer to make flat contact with the wheel surface. We cant use acorn style lugs if that's what you bought. The pic below is a snapped lug from this site using a wheel lock from nissan.
