If the picture is all there is, they seem to be missing the lug bolts. The locks and the mated lugs are intergral.

You have to have the hollowed out lug nut to go with it. One for each wheel. There are plenty of them to be had, probably for free as those locks will only keep honest people from stealing your wheels.

Where do you live. Not a lot of theft of Porsche wheels as there is not much of a market for them. I don't believe you could get chrome wheels as an option in '87. Are they Fuchs?

San Jose, Cali. I bought the car 4 yrs ago with 33K on the clock, 2nd owner and everything is stock, except the stereo CD.

Here are some pictures I took few year ago

Not to get too far astray from your original question, but while the Fuchs wheels are stock, the chroming is aftermarket and actually lessens the value of the wheels.
