Default Wheel locks for steel rims for outlander

Hey all,

Any idea where or if you can get wheel locks for steel winter rims for the Outlander? I have the wheel locks for the alloy rims, but I have picked up tapered lug nuts for the winter rims and doubt I can use the same locks.

Has anyone picked some up? I live in Canada - so far Napa, CT, do not have them.

Thanks!

I used the same ones that came stock with my Outlander.

Try Kal-Tire yet?

your OEM nuts and locks are the same ones that you can use.
they are also tapered.

Been using the same OEM one from my alloys for 3 years on my winter steel wheels no problem as it's tapered !

Hey,

So I am assuming the OEM nuts and locks are the same for the LS and it is for the XLS?

I remember a few people saying that I should get different lug nuts for winter rims since the taper was too small on the OEM nuts. That is why I didn't think that the OEM locks would work either.

So, using new acorn lug nuts (more tapered) and OEM locks will be fine then?

Thanks!
