or locking lugbolts ALWAYS seem to come in the standard length - like the $70 wheel locks @ dealership.
anyone know who carries longer ones for those with spacers?

i cant even get my floor jack under my car! i gotta use the MB jack to get my car up, then slide my floor jack.

you'll need one of those low clearance ones and they are heavy as hell. noone will waste the time. besides, only MB and other 5x112 wheel users will be most interested. Audi's cant use my set up. :)

well it seems i'm the only paranoid one around here . . .
and so it appears that just cause only MB drivers can use the rims doesn't mean there AREN'T any thieves amongst the club202 crowd :D the price one pays for twist'n on something other than stocks. ugh. doesn't anyone remember the "menace II society" days when peeps would get jacked at gunpoint? at least locks would make it more of a b!t@h

LOL @ lowering the car and parking on a hill! Hey though, you can always take them off at night too? :p
