Gorilla X2 Wheel Locks, 14mm x 1.50, Bulge Acorn, Black, 14x1.5, 71641XBC

[MidnightRivian]

I got the Gorilla wheel locks installed.

You can’t even tell I have wheel locks unless you’re looking at it from 3 feet away.

I’m happy with the cost / benefit / function / form.

Get them its well worth it. If they don't have them in stock online, you can go to Discount Tire and have them order direct from Wheel Pros who now owns Gorilla Automotive.

Would these locks be the same for the 22” wheels? Wanna order a set as I’ll be in Dallas first part of September for a wedding and the Rivian will be parked at a hotel for about 4 days.

It should be the same set for 22”, 21” or 20”. The lug studs should all be the same thread pitch.

Did you have to buy 5 sets of 4? If so, are all the lug nut keys the same?

It just one set of 4 lugs and key. You remove one lug off each wheel and replace with the locking lug nut.

You typically only use one lock per wheel, so one pack of 4 locks per vehicle.

Ah, makes sense. In the past, I had replaced all my lugs in larger pack with 1 key, so was wondering how to make it work with only a pack of 4. I'll have to get a pack!

I ordered a 5 pack but they sent my location a 4 pack with one key. It’s all in one pack with matching key. I wrapped the key in electrical tap to protect the wheel from getting banged up by the key.

I have to go back to Discount Tire / America’s tire to get the 5th locking lug nut. I’m expecting it to match the same key I have and if not, I’ll have to ask discount tire to return this 4+1 pack and order the correct 5 pack.

So you did try to buy a 5 pack. I guess in theory you could just get 1 pack. How do the Gorilla lugs compare to the OEM lugs? Are they pretty different if using 1 Gorilla lug and 4 OEM lugs?

My receipt and sku was for the 5 pack. I only use one locking lug nut per wheel and the 5th was going to be for the spare tire that would go on the hitch carrier when I go off-road. I never planned to have 5 locking lug nuts per wheel. The thief can have my wheels before I deal with all locking lug nuts on all studs.

They sent the 4 pack.You can look at the picture and see for yourself how they look/match. These locking lug nuts are a much better match for factory compared to the Mcgard lugs or original gorilla locks I used to use.

I’m extremely happy with the set and plan to keep them for as long as I have this set of wheels / OEM lug nuts.

 

[Slothmonkey]

Got it. I had the Mcgards before where it was kinda pain to have 2 lug keys I had to use since the pack was replacing all the lugs. I'll be good with a pack of 4 since not needing for a spare.

I literally just woke up from a bad dream of walking out to my Rivian in a random parking lot to see my powdercoated 2363s stolen ? so I had to jump on here and look for lug wheel locks. So thanks @MidnightRivian for finding a good set.

The thieves were nice enough to put other wheels on at least! They were just awful mismatched chrome looking things.
