Default Quick Release wheel

I was looking to get a quick release, but dont really know where to start... If at all possible, id like to keep the oem wheel, just have a release hub so I can take the wheel in at night. And if this doesnt exist, any suggestions?

are you doing that to avoid thieves? you know most hub lock can be broken with a vice grip and fry bar in less than a minute right?

and thieves now a day carry different hub, it's hardly worth doing it for security reason any more

not sure if there's quick relase hub for the oem size, but i don't think you want to add any more distance between the two since the airbag will come dangerious close to your face

I don't think they make one for OEM and I'm sure they don't make one airbag compatible. The OEM wheel is spline mounted, while most race wheels are face mounted.

Ohhh... ya I was thinking about as an extra deterent. But if it only buys acouple extra seconds of deterent, then not worth it IMO.
