From the manufacturer
A Different Lock for Every Wheel
McGard offers multiple wheel lock options that vary in thread size, thread length and color. One important factor that often goes overlooked is the mounting surface type. Some wheels required a cone seat, some require a radius seat and others may require a shank style wheel lock. It is important to match the seat type of the wheel lock with the seat type of the wheel for proper installation.
See comparison chart below to help determine the best wheel lock type for your vehicle and wheel combination.

Step 1Remove wheel covers (if equipped) and one lug nut/bolt from each wheel. If studs are rusty, clean with a wire brush prior to installing wheel locks. Do not lubricate threads. Note: Wheel locks should always be the last nut/bolt tightened on each wheel and should be the first one loosened. |
Step 2By hand, install one McGard Wheel Lock onto each wheel to replace the lug nut/bolt removed in step 1. Use only one lock per wheel. Note: If original lug nuts/bolts use a washer/plastic cap, be sure to install the washer/plastic cap included in package onto the wheel locks. Notice: Air impact guns should not be used for installation of locks or lug nuts/bolts. Use of an impact gun for installation may cause over tightening resulting in difficulty of removal and permanent damage to the lock and key. Overtightening can also cause damage to brake rotors and wheel seats. |
Step 3Using the McGard key and a lug wrench, tighten each lock to the torque specified in your vehicle owner’s manual. Be sure to keep the key pattern squarely engaged into the lock pattern via direct inward pressure. For best results, use a torque wrench and socket for final tightening. Wheel locks should be re-torqued after 25 miles(40Km) of driving. Newly installed lug nuts/bolts should also be re-torqued. |

McGard’s easy to use, one-piece wheel lock functions like a regular lug nut or bolt, but requires a special key tool for installation and removal. Its design allows for an unlimited number of different computer generated lock and key patterns. This unique wheel lock system is continually being refined and improved upon. McGard Locks are made in the United States to meet or exceed O.E.M. standards for safety and durability. Presently, McGard is an Original Equipment wheel lock supplier to over 30 car lines around the world. Compare our features and you’ll see why McGard is the best wheel & tire protection available.
1. 8 Different Key Hex Sizes
McGard is the only manufacturer to offer 8 different key hex sizes to match the vehicle’s original equipment lug wrench. Your customer will appreciate this important feature when they have to change a flat tire along the roadside.
2. User Friendly Keys
The Wheel Lock's steel collar guides the key into the lock pattern. Simply place the key over the lock and turn until the patterns engage. The collar holds the key in alignment for easy installation and removal.
3. Extra Narrow Groove Patterns
The computer generated key designs allow for an unlimited number of key patterns. The narrow groove resists the intrusion of lock removal tools into the pattern.
4. Triple-Nickel Chrome Plating
The best in the industry. Our process includes three layers of nickel and one layer of microporous chrome. The first layer of nickel is for corrosion resistance; the second layer of nickel is for luster and the third nickel layer interacts with the microporous chrome layer to disperse nature’s corrosive action (rust).
5. Through-Hardened Steel
McGard uses only restricted chemistry steel, made in the United States, specifically for McGard. These special standards insure the structural integrity of each and every fully machined McGard wheel lock. Every lock is through-hardened and tempered, reaching the depth of hardness needed for its unsurpassed level of security (unlike case hardening which is only a surface treatment).
6. Precision Threads
Core integrity and precision machining provide the highest strength in the industry. All McGard locks and lug nuts meet or exceed the highest OEM proof load standards, 135,000 to 160,000 PSI.
7. Precise Bearing Surface
McGard’s standard for concentricity of the bearing surface to the pitch diameter is 30% more precise than OEM standards. This insures even distribution of the clamp load and uniform seating of the lock to the wheel.

Be sure to get the proper "seat" (cone, radius, or shank) wheel locks that match your wheels. (The "seat" is the part of the lug nut that makes contact with the wheel.) Typically cone type seats are used for aftermarket wheels like my Drag 34s. On the other hand, my 2008 Toyota Sienna and 2005 Toyota Camry both have OEM alloy wheels and both use shank type seats. All three cars have the same M12 x 1.5 thread.
These McGard 25257 locks are 1.24" long, look great and are easy to use. The included key has a double "stacked" head on it, it fits into a 13/16" socket or a 7/8" socket. The key pattern is actually at the bottom of a sleeve that fits over the body of the lock. This design provides secure key/lock engagement and eliminates damage to the key or the lock due to misalignment.
McGard includes a registration card so you can get replacement keys at a later date. Be sure to keep your copy in a safe place.
Other reviewers have complained that the included 13/16" hex key does not fit their OEM lugnut tool. As mentioned above, the included key has a double "stacked" head on it, it fits into a 13/16" socket or a 7/8" socket. Also, McGard actually makes other (less expensive) locksets (that have slightly bigger outside diameters) with the same internal thread with hex keys in 2 sizes to fit certain OEM lugnut tools:
- the 25137 locks McGard 24137 Chrome Cone Seat Wheel Locks (M12 x 1.5 Thread Size) - Set of 4 have a 3/4" hex size key and are 1.46" long
- the 25157 locks McGard 24157 Chrome Cone Seat Wheel Locks (M12 x 1.5 Thread Size) - Set of 4 have a 13/16" hex size key and are 1.28" long
so may be possible to get a lockset with a key that fits your OEM wrench. (The SAE sized keys work with metric sockets, but it won't be a tight fit.) I'm using a Gorilla Automotive 1721 Telescoping Power wrench Gorilla Automotive 1721 Telescoping Power Wrench - Standard Socket and the included 7/8" socket fits the larger head on this key perfectly.
All in all, this is a great product. It's more expensive than those copycat brands available at your local automobile specialty store, but definitely worth it!
