I'll only ask this once....you have carbon fiber wheels?


you can get wheel locks even at pep boys honestly, but they're not really top of the line.

I have bull locks for example, but I don't have oem sizes anymore, so if they make them for oem sizes...go for it because they're great.

And what kind of wheels are these exactly? I think what you mean is that you have Carbon Fiber WRAPPED wheels.

HRE was supposed to come out with a wheel with a CF barrel and alloy face but I'm not sure if they ever did. 360 Forged makes a CF wheel, but it's wrapped alloy. I think Ray did a shoot of a Ferrari F430 with them.
