Ah thanks for the fantastic information!
I might reconsider getting a new lug nuts. I was thinking about getting a colored one to match my car color. But I might just save $$$

I've also read reviews that Gorilla Locks reuse keys, so that might be a problem for thieves who just buy a cheap set off of Amazon and reuse the keys.

If you lose the Gorilla key, you can get a replacement for $10 from Gorilla. Do as I did and get a replacement key as soon as you buy the set and store somewhere in the house to have as a spare. There is a serial number that comes with your set, with this serial number, they know which key to send you.

All Wheel lock companies re-use keys, even OEM Locks. Wheel locks to not have "Unique" keys. Rather, there are about 20-30 different key combinations. So for someone to take off your gorilla locks or stock locks, they would have to walk around with about 30 Keys in their pocket and try each one
