Lock Nuts - How Many Per Wheel?

Spent $3500 on wheels/$1500 on rubber and I'm far from an expert. How many lock nuts per wheel? 1? 2?

Thanks for expert opinions.

6...honestly, no matter what you get, someone can remove them. Most you can just hammer a slightly smaller 12 point socket on and remove. The more complex they get, the more likely the wheel will be damaged if you lose your key.
