Quick interjection.....based on my past experience. Wheel locks dont deter thieves....it pisses them off and they resort to more extreme meausures to get your wheels which will cause more damage and cost more money than just replacing wheels and tires. Ask me how i know :)

If they want your wheels bad enough they will take them.

you need to see if your aftermarket wheels have ball seats or cone seats....most have cone seats though.

also Fitment Industires has great customer service and I believe as you are checking out they will suggest wheel locks for those wheels.

Most aftermarket wheels have a 60 degree cone style seat.

The wheels you linked...is that what you're actually planning to get? I'm not sure they'll fit great...The hub size also doesn't match. And they are 22mm offset at 19x9.5 so...they're going to poke out the fenders quite a bit.

yep, I just need a 73.1 to 70.5 hub ring. I've seen other examples and it pokes a bit in the rear but I dig the look
