Having read quite a few threads on how easy the standard locking nuts are to get off, are there any locking nuts which actually do the job?

I think i last bought a set 15 years ago for an S3 which i still have somewhere!

These will be for OZ Ultraleggeras.

TIA

McGuard locking wheel nuts are prob the best but make sure you keep the key and Calvin number safe as they are a biatch to get off if you loose the key - I had a nightmare getting a set off after a broke the key. But to be fair mc guard gave me a new set of bolts and 3 keys to go with them 2 of wich are specialy hardened.

I've still got them somewhere unused

Ah yeah mcguards is what I had on s3

If you want to off load them, let me know. I'll probably get a set new otherwise.

Yeah I'll be needing locking nuts soon too.

The std. pin locking nuts are awful, keys break all the time.
