Default Black locking lug nut suggestions?

I picked up my Grand Sport about a year ago and never got around to changing out the lug nuts. I have a silver car and black wheels (best way to do it ) but it has chrome lug nuts (1 locking lug on each wheel).

What locking lug nuts do you guys use? Any good deals out there?

Thanks!

Gorilla or McGard, both at Summit Racing. One's got a black chrome that looks a bit different from solid black. May want to look into it.

with AORoads. If you forced me to guess which is most popular around here I'd have to say Gorilla. I don't know which one is available in black.

I've used Gorilla in the past with good success.

Stupid question, do people still steal wheels?

Maybe not on Wisconsin but in Miami, whoa yes. One morning where I used to live I passed three cars on landscaping blocks.

Of course a thief can still beat on a socket and get the locks off or break the window and grab the key but I figure it'll cause them to go to the next guy's car.
