Isn't that like a tad pricey?!

Anyone know where I can get a decent set of locking wheel nuts at non-ripoff prices?

My halfords ones have held up to 2 different attempts to remove my rims! Over a year down the line and the head hasnt deformed in anyway. And the aftersales service was great when i had to buy replacement caps etc.

You get them at a staff discount price or something? When I phoned up they said there was no trade price on accessories?

I do because I'm a cheapskate!

Are Vauxhall ones the best ones to get then (regardless of price)?
