Do you have an example of what you are asking about? I’m not sure I know what the wheel locks are.

wheel locks replace the lug nuts. They come in a pack of four one for each wheel. Tesla store has them for every other model except the Cybertruck (they are not compatible with the CT) I am looking for a 3rd party replacement that will fit the CT.

Wheel locks don't provide much additional security and can be a pain when you have a problem. I've always had them removed when dealers installed them in the past.

I saw something about a year ago that more rims are stolen that have wheel locks than when they do not. It's because people typically use them on nicer or custom rims, but it's certainly not much of a deterrent.

I have a set of CYBERTRUCKco's Billet Aluminum LOCKING Wheel Caps installed on my Cyberbeast rims that definitely adds a very secure layer of theft protection. But, If a thief is really determined, knows how to remove them, and has the right tools, it's possible to remove them but it will slow them down and make them think twice before attempting to steal the rims.

Seems like a good idea.

Thanks, exactly my thought process.

Your sentry system will alert you far in advance if someone is trying to jack your rims. Also I would image that the Cybertruck is not easy to jack up compared to other vehicles due to the weight so it's likely less of a target for rim theft.

These are nice, but after examining the reverse of the aero wheel caps today (took them off to top off air) these hub locks and the aero core covers and cyber covers can't be installed at the same time, correct?

That Gorilla lug nut set would be an option but they are "unavailable". It only displayed that after selecting Cybertruck (2025) in the "garage" and shopping against that. Also edited for 2024 in case their algorithm was eliminating 2025 as being "new" and nope also unavailable.

Correct, the OEM aero covers cannot be installed over the CYBERTRUCKco's Billet Aluminum LOCKING Wheel Caps.

Good luck to the dumbass trying to takeoff a Cybertruck wheel while the suspension constantly tries to auto level
