RAD is a company that offers aftermarket lug bolts and wheel locks. Both do the same as an OE lug bolt and OE wheel lock. Most get RAD to replace their old and undesirable looking OE lug bolts.

Who can sell me a set of wheel locks for my e90? I just got some wheels and I have the OE lugs, need some lock ASAP.


Thanks!

Thanks Charles. I asked this because when looking at euro auto source, it offers both RAD locks and wheel lug bolts. So you're saying if I want a wheel lock, either works and I only need one?
