I heard that there are special lug nuts that can be used to lock each rim but is there a difference on which type of lug nuts I choose? Where do I get them anyway. :)

I used 4 different security lug nuts... means I have 4 different set for all 4 rims. Thief will have a hard time stealing them.

Now, in the process of modifying a China-made stun gun to fit into the rims... armed by the car alarm. Let's see if 20,000 volts is enough or not. Hehehe...

Still in planning stage because the stun gun are hard to come by... usually sold by street peddlars in Jln Pasar.

Still, a good weekend project.

China-made Stun Gun - RM 100
Expensive sport rims - RM 3000
Getting electrocuted while trying to steal the rims - PRICELESS! :)

Rims are definitely worth more than that. I was thinking those that are sold in tesco. Where is K speed in KL?? I'm in Penang now. Where can I custom them if I really wanna custom it.

A friend of mine bought it from a street peddlar for RM 100. According to him, has enough power to kill a medium-size dog.:shocked:

you have to remember those "off the shelf" "locknuts" share the same KEY. if you can buy it off the shelf, so can the thieves. they probably have a whole set of "KEYS"
