factory wheel locks do NOT fit on my 993TT with iforged rims. I bought four new black lug nuts and shelved the wheel locks.

The 993 uses a lug nut--the 996 a lug bolt. perhaps the locking lug bolts for the 996 fit.

I didn't like the factory lug design makes the wheels look cheap IMHO so i bought my locking lug nuts from Booth design. I believe I paid about $135 for a set of 5 http://www.boothedesign.com/boltsstudslugs.html
I got mine in in polished these are the best design locks I've seen, a lot of engineering has gone into these. I wanted all my lugs to match, you can't tell which is the locking lug when they are on the car. I also bought a set of lugs from Vertex (http://www.vertexauto.com/ListItems.aspx) I paid $100 for a set of 20. I hope this helps
PS: wash thoes wheels
Mike,
what do you use to get the inside of the wheel so clean ? do you use metal polish aswell ? or just a wax?

I will take the wheels off one by one and give them a good cleaning and wax on the inside. I live in Florida so it's easy to keep them clean all year around.
does anyone have a pic of OEM wheel locks on an iforged/hre wheel ?
