Default Wheel locks - 2024 matte black - I can't find them

Hi. New owner of a 2024 LC 500 convertible and I would like to get OEM matte black wheel locks asap. However, I can't seem to find a solid answer on such a simple item. The ones that may come up while searching say not compatible, while others list this car and many other Lexus models, but that can't be right. . . Simple question: If you have Lexus OEM matte black wheel locks on your LC 500, can you tell me the part number?

Thank you in advance.

Great question, I’m interested too. They have to be locking bolts not lugs for ‘24s.

But also, in many decades of driving, I’ve never seen a car in public just up on blocks with its wheels jacked…does this happen? Serious question….haha

You haven’t parked your LC overnight on the street.

Good question. I haven’t found any wheel locks for my Bespoke either. And it seems all bespoke build doesn’t come with wheel locks.

Confirmed. No wheel locks on my bespoke with matt wheels either.

It's easy enough to buy a set but does anyone know what seat style the OE lug bolts have? Likely ball seat.. And what is the outer diameter of the bolt, 17mm or 19mm?

After this was posted yesterday, I also looked and could find nothing with a OEM Mag Style head. That would be like this:

You point there for *f but the images form tecman post above indicate for the new LC that *c type is used...am I missing something or misunderstanding this chart for the 24s?

I conclude the ‘24s don’t have available wheel locks because if they were stolen, no one could figure out how to put them back on.

Interestingly on the bespoke build page there is an optional accessory for wheel locks. I wonder what you get if you pick that accessory LOL
