Strong and Reliable!

The Gorilla Automotive Thread is an amazing fastener product. According to my experience, it is undoubtedly one of the most durable and reliable screws available in the market. Its durability is impressive and has withstood every use I've had for it. I really appreciate that this product is so easy to install, making it a great choice for both experienced and novice users. The only minor con is that it is slightly expensive as compared to other screws in the category. In conclusion, if you are…

Pros
  • Easy to install on most wheel types
Cons
  • May require additional tools for proper installation

You need a 13/16 socket

fits my car well but I can't use the wrench with my crowbar, I've also tried using a crowbar from another car and no Happiness. Turns out the wrench takes a 13/16 socket so you have to keep the socket and wrench in the car in case the wrench breaks.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly

They were easy to install on my car and I feel safer.

They fitted easily to my car and I feel more secure, especially as I've heard from my car that stock rims are a hotspot for theft. I didn't want to use dealer wheel locks as they are too common and any thief looking to steal rims will most likely have a dealer branded adapter socket as anyone can buy one. Presumably these gorillas are made using different templates and with the appropriate socket adapter, so I imagine a thief is less likely to have the right template in their arsenal.

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Slightly torn
