Default Wheel Lock Nuts ?

I found out on a recent visit to the dealer that the 20" wheel package on the 07 Tahoes does NOT come with Wheel Lock Nuts. Its been a few years since I had nice wheels and dont want to have these stolen. If I buy some from the dealer, am I making a mistake? Factory or aftermarket? Do they even slow thieves down? What do you recommend?

They won't slow a competent thief down half a millisecond but they will keep your neighbors 16 year old from putting them on Ebay (90% of the time).

But if you simply must have them, get McGards.

I agree with the others.

Won't stop a pro, but will probably save you from the strung-out crackhead looking to get a quick buck for a rock.
