Wheel Lock Options for Vorsteiner 102 Wheels?

Seeking some recommendations as I recently upgraded to 20" Vorsteiner 102's and my factory BMW 19" 437 wheel locks do not fit as the head is too wide.

What are other Vorsteiner wheel owners using or recommend for wheel locks?

Look forward to hearing some suggestions, Thanks

I would stick to the Vorsteiner spline lug locks. The would compliment your 102's perfectly and give you a lock. Also they are more narrow to give you more room in the lug pocket.

You might want to take a look at the new TITEtec Slim wheel locks which provide a slim 20mm diameter bolt head. If you do not run spacers, they’re available with a standard 28mm thread length. TITEtec offers superior security with varying internal key patterns unlike common tuner lug “locks” with uniform, symmetrical, externally splined key patterns that face the issue of someone simply hammering on a socket and removing the bolt.

Vorsteiner wheels + Vorsteiner locks. Seems like a no-brainer.

I used Gorilla S/D tuner bolt locks. Only cost me around $50 CAD. Works perfectly. Part # 47142SD.
