Plan to drive mine on a daily basis and I know the shiny new chrome hubcaps are going to be a prime target for thieves, punks, and other ne'er do wells.

Has anyone seen or used any type of lock to secure the hubcap to the wheels? I saw one on e-bay and a similar one at JC Whitney, looks like it might work but thought I'd check in here first.

Man Dan, I've been around this hobby since the mid 40's when I was a kid, my dad was a mechanic from the 20's thru the 50's and big brother was always around cars. I've never seen those hubcap locks, thanks for showing us those.
