Locking wheel lug recommendations

Just moved to Europe and brought our 2014 Trail with 17" alloy TRD wheels with us. It has been recommended that we use locking wheel lugs, at least one on each wheel. Can anyone recommend a quality set (OEM or not)? Thanks in advance.

OEM for trd wheels.

Spline lug nuts for aftermarket.

Keep in mind, neither will actually stop a determine thief. It might slow them down.

My combo is spline lug nuts and a 2way paging alarm system w/ tilt sensor. It won't stop a thief, but it makes it more likely that i can catch them..

Any wheel lock will help slow down someone trying to steal your wheels, but they're only a deterrent

The factory OEM lug nuts are made by McGard. All Toyota dealers in the US are required to have a set keys for them, so they can service your car in case you loose your key.

These wont work with the TRD wheels, the lug nuts need to be mag seat lug nuts.

So if sticking with OEM to prevent damage to TRD wheels, are the lock lugs in the link the correct ones?

Anyone know if there is there a full set of black OEM's?

Yes, these ones will work on the TRD wheels.

RE: black lug nuts - I have yet to find a set of black lug nuts that won't rust; when (not if) they do, they look like shit.
