Wheel keys
Another dumb question, ( you'll find I tend to ask a lot of dumb questions ) but here goes... My new car has 18 inch rims with a locking lug on each wheel.... shouldn't I have been given some sort of key for that locking lug? Hate like hell to have a flat tire and not be able to change it....

I don't like dealing with this wheel lock issue and either don't get the locks - requires a special order - or have them removed and replaced with regular lug bolts. I have to wonder if wheel theft is even a problem with stock wheels.
