I need a new set of locking wheel bolts but don't want to get some Vaux ones again because they're just plain useless. Has anyone ever had any of the ones off eBay?
Only looking on eBay because I have about £15 in my Paypal account

I had Vauxhall ones on the Softstars. tbh they do the job unless you have to keep taking the wheels off. When ever the car was serviced/had things replaced it didn't seem to bother the people doing it.

McGard ones are also shit - our key got chewed to fuck after a minor slip. I had to hammer it onto a bolt to try to tidy up the profile to get them all off - replaced them with the big allen 'Tuner' bolts (I think thats what people refer to them as)

Ive always found genuine vauxhall locking nuts good. Complete pain in the arse to get off it you lose they key though, which I suppose is the whole point of them!
