    Just a FYI...I tried a set of locking lugs from Autozone a few years back, & within two days they were showing signs of rust...

    Returned em' & bought McGards...they cost more, but they're worth it.

    I lost the cap off of one of my lugs last February. I think water got in through a crack and then froze behind the cap pushing it off. I bit the bullet and ordered five sets of McGard lugs from Summit. The others has slight rust on the edges and I didn't want one lug to stand out. Now I've got 19 spares...

    When I had the new Nittos put on the Dragon during my trip to San Diego Thanksgiving, I had locked the glove box since I had my checkbook and cash in there forgetting:

    A) the wheelock key was in there
    B) they were gonna need it
    &
    C) they had the freaking key to the glovebox anyway!

    They never even called to remind me how stupid I was, which I appreciate tremendously. They figured it out on thier own and my dough was unmolested....
    What can I say? The eighties were really good to me
    Best,
