I have a 2008 Ranger with steel wheels. The wheels have the hubcaps that snap over the lug nuts. I would like to put a locking lug nut on each wheel. Does anyone know what type of locking lug nut will work with this type of hubcap? Thank you, Jim.

 

As long as the lug nut is the same diameter (where it snaps on) it should be fine.

HOWEVER, you're wasting your money. "Locking" lug nuts don't lock. If you hammer on a socket to a locking lug nut, it'll turn. All it needs is a special tool to turn it. They're a waste of money and hilariously easy to defeat.

Don't waste your money, dude. Put whatever you'd spend on those towards an oil change or something.


PS: Studs are easy to break, too. So, even if the above failed, the stud could be broken off instead.
