I have a few different lug bolts I use on my VW, but none lock the way the Gorillas do. The competition uses a flower shape on the inside of the lug, which does lead to a more narrow design, but once torqued to spec, the shape can break off, which happened on my other car. The Gorillas use the shape on the outside of the lug, which so far seems to be a better and stronger design. I have aftermarket wheels that require “tuner” lugs, and these are just narrow enough. Also note that although these lug bolts are advertised exclusively for BMW vehicles, they will fit any car with the same measurement lugs. The black finish still looks great after several months and the unique shape gives confidence in someone not taking the time to steal my wheels. The Gorillas also went into my old wheel hubs more easily than other lugs I have, which normally grind through rust to seat properly.
