🔒 Mishimoto MMLG-15-LOCKSL Silver Aluminum Locking Lug Nuts, M12 x 1.5 Review

To be honest today is Saturday and the company hasn't contacted me yet. However, lug nuts look fine on my wheels, but they are all different sizes. Goodyear had trouble putting them on and even gave me a percussion instrument to put them on. However, I don't know if I can get them to eat this time. I will contact them on Monday to see what they will do.

I bought these a few months ago and didn't install them until my non-original wheels came back from powdercoating. (It's too late to go back now). Initial installation: 2 screws stripped, all have nut marks. I had to take the wheels off a second time and when I put them back on, 4 nuts ripped off. So now I have a total of 6 damn nuts and need to go back to the OEM tabs.

The lug nuts themselves are of good quality. However, when I used them 5 months after purchasing them, I found that I received them in two different sizes and only got one adapter. This way I can only use 4 of the 20 nuts I bought. I want to request a refund or replacement, but 5 months have passed. There was even a sticker on the box that said "Revain Inspected". I think Revane should take a closer look, and so should I.

These are high quality aluminum nuts. They fit the spikes and my aftermarket wheels very well. I believe they are forged from aluminum alloy 7075. The socket is perfect for 4 7-point "locks" (some reviews mention that the supplied socket "doesn't fit all lugs". It shouldn't be!) . The reason I only give 4 stars is because the color is fading! Now I have 20 dark pink nuts! I don't know if colors other than red have this problem. Otherwise I'm happy with them.

So many people here don't know how to read the description! The lock is designed to work with just 4 grommets (1 per wheel) and the other 16 are a standard key size. You can tell the difference as standard locks have 6 sides while nose locks have 7 sides. It's an ingenious design as they all look pretty much the same and don't have an exaggerated lock nut like most traditional kits. If someone tries to remove your wheels, they can't remove them all with a standard wrench. They are light but…

UPDATE: 08/21/18 the car has already been washed several times. Wheels have been cleaned. The color fades with every wash. All in all I regret this purchase. I bought these for my BMW as they match the color of my car. I thought they would look good. A minor inconvenience as my wheels are quite deep I needed a skinny socket. If they were 17mm I could use a regular head. Also, they were scratched after installation. would prefer 17mm on bmw. Maybe I'll use it once and then order something else.

I was skeptical given the reviews but figured there was no way a reputable brand like Mishimoto would have such lackluster quality control that all the cleats didn't match. After examining it, I found that their locking tabs are 7-sided while the rest are regular 6-sided. I ordered them and put them on, they fit perfectly, the key worked and everything went smoothly. Also, I've seen that from what I've found, the threads we're pulling from some other reviews are only for hitting aluminum's max…
