If your Mazda car comes with OEM locking wheel lug nuts, then a special key may be stored in the glove compartment, center console storage, storage box, or trunk. After installing new specialty rims, you might intend to go the extra mile to protect them from being stolen. One of the solutions that most drivers turn to is Mazda wheel locks. Wheel locks are special nuts for tires that contain theft-deterrent sockets.
They work as standard wheel nuts but they require specific keys to install/remove. While locking wheel nuts is effective in protecting your wheels, things will get complicated if you lose the wheel lock key. Once you installed locking wheel nuts, always remember to keep the wheel lock keys well stored. Since they are special sockets that match the unique pattern, using other keys to fit your wheel locks means nothing.
