OK! Found some teaser shots without revealing the build (I'm sure you all know what happening base on the current pics provided) Here are a few more. (Drivers side only shots) My guy did an AMAZING job! He treated the car like it was his, lined everything up as he was doing his own. Perfect fitment, equal gaps all around and the best part is he mirrored the exact same perfection on the passenger side |

Wow! Looking good bro!!! IMO $400 seems too much for the the wheel locks. Some idiot ppl try to stea it. Luckly I went out fast and they ran away. I had to take it out and reinstall.

The OEM wheel locks DO NOT fit my aftermarket wheels... the OE lugs do, but not the locks. |

Yes of course....you're the first person I call once out. Fingers crossed..... of course pending the final piece arriving, the car will be out this Wednesday, latest Thursday. I hope nothing else pops up. I do need to grab wheel locks from somewhere and hope I can grab it locally, otherwise....another delay |

Endras got pissed at my asking ... since they say $0 off on the M5 and yet they really low balled me on the trade in, I took my stand and refuse to play their game.
Therefore, no deal @ Endras. That's why I am trying at TC. Timmy @ Port Union/401 - let's call this location for now. Not very familiar with the area ... I will PM you my cell & office # for further confirmation |

After TC, then it's BMW Toronto. That would be it for my hunt.
My 2011 550 is good for at least 3 more years (I have no major issues since new) and will save towards the next car. Probably just a few minor mods between now & then if I am keeping the car. btw, I did go to Parkview and met a sales guy named Joe (he used to work at Autohaus), what a piece of art he is ! I asked for a real appraisal and he said to me, "I will get you an appraisal only if you are going to buy a car from me TODAY" ! I said, no thankyou ! |

I had the same problem.....I went with Rimlox. They are pricey but I'll never have to worry in the slightest now. There are some other manufacturers that make cheaper ones that might fit but I don't remember their names.

This is a common problem when using the OEM BMW locks. The bolt will fit just fine but when you try to get the key in to tighten the bolt it will not fit in the lug hole.
If you go with a lock like rim lox, mcgard, etc. you will not have this issue. BMW's OEM locks are larger than a standard lug hole. |

Kinda over kill but for $50 a set, I cant go wrong. They (Bimmian) has a promo for the RAD set where if I buy 4, i get the 5th free. They said many people are doing this now a days and made this promo for that specific reason. Not sure if I should go that route, but its still cheaper than the $400 quoted by Rimlox. |

It was odd that it didn't fit, but it helps those who don't know and are running a standard lug vs a wheel lock |
