The manufacturer is so dumb that they they only made one key to fit all the locks. 
Some people say there are no dumb questions: I disagree.

McGard has a number of different puzzles. These are rasied metal areas that fit the lock face. When you get your locks suggest you send in for a dupicate key.

Exactly why I bought the GM/McGard ones through my delivery dealer's parts dept. They even have the torque spec engraved on the key.

I like Gorilla because I get 20 locking nuts and not just one odd nut per wheel. I think it is odd looking to have four of one design and one of another on each wheel. Just my opinion of course.

They don't jack up cars to steal wheels; they put cement blocks and wood under the suspension, remove the valve and then pull the deflated tires off the car - a group of 4 guys can do 4 wheels in 5 minutes or less without setting of any car alarm.

#2 If you could get a cement block and wood under the car letting air out will do nothing, these are run flats.

Sounds like an interesting theory. I'd love to see you try and do that with our cars. Especially putting that cement block under the compressed suspension.
