I am just going to get Rays Locking Lugs. Honestly, I don't think people pay much attention to lugs.

Vik, you'd be pleasantly surprised at how much and the kinds of things car enthusiasts look at.
I even look at from lugs to simple things such a minor interior trim pieces, to emblems (ie: black pearl emblems).. etc.

Do you guys think the Locking Lugs from Rays will suffice for my wheels? The guy who sold me my wheels showed them to me. They didn't seem too secure. I don't want people to jack my ****!

Also, do you guys know if insurance will generally cover the new wheels? My insurance is already crazy high.
