    I want to jump on e-bay and get a set of cheap wheel locks shipped to me. Does anyone know the proper type of wheel lug to get? Below are the three possible types.

    I'm not sure if the V takes a different type of lug than that standard prius?

    Thanks,

    Dale

    Note, you have to enter a www before the tirerack to get the image.

    The system wouldn't let me post a URL since I am too new?

    They are flat and the bolt pattern is different than a org Prius. Check out your local tire shop. I am sure they can set you up.

    Don't waste your money. If a thief wants your wheels, those locks will not stop them. They just hammer a socket over the locks and turn. I saw a tow truck driver do it on car that had a flat and the owner had lost the key for the lock.
