Note that your wrench may not fit this gorilla mount

The product itself is excellent! Durable and beautiful polished look. The only thing I hate is that the cleat key is in the machine even though I ordered the correct cleat pattern. The wrench used to remove the factory lugs WILL NOT FIT the Gorilla Lock key extension. I had to buy another key to make it work. Don't know if anyone else has experienced this. But that was my case with Subaru +15. That's why he deducted a star, apart from the fact that I like the product. So now I need to save the…

Pros
  • . Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • disappears

Better than McGard!

This is the third set of Gorilla locks I've bought and I'm happier with them than McGard. I prefer the gorilla design and key-locking approach because they're less likely to break or rust. For these reasons I had to replace the McGard locks and keys and have never looked back since. My only complaint about these particular locks is that they are a bit longer than regular lug nuts and stick out further, but aren't as noticeable on the wheel. Look at the picture and you'll probably have trouble…

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Security

Fits Mazda 3 2008 with Blizzak WS-80 Snow Tires

These are great wheel locks for the new snow tires I bought for my Mazda 3. Compared to McGard wheel locks I found them easier to tighten and loosen because of Gorilla Automotive's design to make the "keyhole" around the bar and not in front of it. My old McGard locks feel like they are warping and it is becoming increasingly difficult to re-insert the key to disengage it. I also think they look a lot better as it's harder to tell which lug on the tire is the lock. I don't usually see bike…

Locked and can't tell

Bought because someone stole the entire rim/tire from a colleague in our company car park. I didn't want to be a victim myself, so I bought them. The size in the photo is suitable for Kia Sorento 2016. I chose this lock for its looks and size. I've noticed that Gorilla made a different set of locks for my Sorento, but people have complained that they're longer than the stock nuts; This model was shorter. I also chose Gorilla as the lock looks like regular nuts (looks nice but a bit bad as…

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • Empty

Works as advertised

I order these locks first based on Amazon's recommendations for my particular car model, then realized there are different lengths etc. I was a bit concerned but when I received them and compared to the lock on the car, they were almost the same size, after installation you can't even tell which lock it is on, try the to guess the pictures above. an indication that the lock was at the very bottom of the wheel. I have peace of mind now that my summer tires prevent theft, better safe than sorry…

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Out of fashion
