Believe it or not, something as simple as wheel locks is not that simple. It has been the subject of heated debates and a few group buys.. here is one of the old threads:

I think 90% of us couldn't tell a difference ... I would go to the local Honda dealer and get a set.

The Honda wheels have a special seat on the nuts. They are not conical, they are almost curved and you just can't walk into the local Pep Boys and buy locking lug nuts. Because I always have locks on my car's wheels, I just went to the Honda dealer closest to me and bought locks....for $51 for four!

I would recommend that you buy them from H & A for $24.50 plus shipping. If you end up spending more than $200, they will sell them to you for $15.

Yep, I got mine from H&A and put them on about 14K miles ago. There is no vibration whatsoever, although I have not had her above 115mph. Also did not get any uneven tire wear. I say go for it. It would cost way too much to replace what's there - or what used to be there. Wait - what a great excuse to sport some new rims..........hmmm...... what's my deductible?
