Rota wheels + Locking lugs????

Im picking up a set of Rota Subzero's soon, I just wanted to know if locking lugs work with these wheels. I know Rotas dont have really deep lug holes like some other wheels do, would it even be worth my effort to put my expensive lugs on. Possibly use a different combination of locking lugs, anyone have personal experience related to this?

Nice pick!

It looks like your car was broken into alreay so getting wheel locks would be a good idea.

i have the locks already, i was wondering if rota wheels are deep enough to use locking lugs with.... it looks to me like a good part of the lug is sticking out of the wheel...

If i find a pic, i'll post it.

I don't know quite what you mean without a pic, but I have 16" C8s and 15" Slips and both my Gorilla lugs (they're pretty slim) and McGard locks (pretty fat, same goes for the key) work just fine. The McGard key is a tight fit with the C8s but it works.

I have a set of gorilla lugs on my 15" slipstreams. It's the slightly larger lugnut in the lower right.
