What are locking wheel nuts?
Locking wheel nuts or lug nuts as they can also be called are used to keep your wheels attached to your vehicle. These nuts have a special key that you need to have to remove them if you ever need to.
If you ever need to change or repair your tyres and need to get the wheel off you will need the locking wheel nut. Most garages will supply this when you purchase the car and normally you will find it in the glovebox, in the compartments in the boot or with the spare wheel.

After suffering a puncture in my van that I had just bought I found the car jack and tool to release the spare wheel were missing. With it being 7am on Sunday December 30th I could not find anyone available to help. Until I found driveway tyres on the Web. I rang Jon who answered within seconds. Within 20 minutes Jon was with me. He managed to get my spare wheel out and swapped over within minutes, with no pressure to buy a new tyre from him and only charging me £20 for the call out. I was more than happy to pay double for the service he provided and with it being Sunday morning during the holiday period. Jon did a great job, wire brushing the spare to remove the rust, checking the psi on all of my tyres, advising me on safety and using a torque wrench to tighten my wheels rather than just banging them on with a drill. I would highly recommend driveway tyres to anyone.
