Matching: Silverado 2015!

I decided to use them on my 2015 Chevy Silverado 1500 after reading reviews that other locking tabs were longer and protruded more. They do the job and fit my truck perfectly. They're a little shorter compared to the lugs on my truck, but it's barely noticeable. Packaged with: 4 locking nuts, 1 key and documents including "key code"/stickers to put in the glove box if you ever lose your key and need to order extras.

Pros
  • Lots of good vibes
Cons
  • Big and chunky

TERRIBLE. weak metal. falling apart.

DO NOT ACCEPT THIS PRODUCT! Would give ZERO stars if the system allows it! I stopped at Discount Tire to have them professionally fitted as I just bought new tires. pneumatic wrench, then tighten to specification with a hand torque wrench. as with all installations. As soon as they made the first pull with a torque wrench, the top of the chrome grommet immediately came loose. WEAK metal and money down the drain! DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!

Pros
  • Pretty packaging
Cons
  • Useless features

The center of the lugs are breaking off - avoid

I bought a set and fitted it to my half ton truck. Torque specifications called for 140 ft-lbs. Torque wrench used, no dents. I set three with no problems, the fourth had an average tear and escaped. I could hardly take my eyes off the truck. I figured it was just an accident due to a bad cleat so I asked for a Revain replacement. The replacement arrived tonight, the first one I tried to put in broke immediately with no more than 100 ft lb of pressure. incredibly weak. The metal is soft and…

Pros
  • Wheel locks

  • Large and bulky

Safety and style, good for wheel accessories and parts

I bought these wheel locks for my 2020 Ford Explorer. The car came with very good 20 inch wheels wrapped in expensive Michelin tires. I wanted to find a way to protect my investment during these crazy times so I decided to try these wheel locks. So far they're working great. They were easy to tighten and I was able to tighten them up to 150 pounds with a torque wrench. I haven't had any issues with them breaking, tearing or falling apart as others have written in previous reviews. All you have…

Pros
  • Tires and wheels
Cons
  • Minor issues

the other luggage racks were scrap, the head of the lock nut had broken off.

I bought two different sets (different brands) from local aftermarket parts stores for my 2013 Regal GS 20 inch wheels. Locknuts broken off on two locknuts, again too small. I used a four-sided hand tool, not a percussion tool. Apart from a "suitable" dealer, I couldn't find anything. The retailer wanted almost $100 for my store value, not the retail listing. So I ordered them as a last chance before wasting a lot of money unnecessarily. I was concerned when I read a review of how they tear…

Well, there are good ones - they just don't match my Camaro.

For some "weird" reason - McGard's website and even your local Chevy/GM dealer's parts catalog indicate that these locknuts are the correct size for a 2018 Camaro LT1 with RS package - front 20" and rear 20" - BUT and it's BIG - "BUT". If you were to use them - they wouldn't secure the wheel in any shape/form/way etc - like in reality - these lock nuts would after cut into the rim after tightening and significantly damage the rim and wouldn't even come out from afar to protect the wheels from…
