Wheel Locks?.. Or Not Wheel Locks ?

My car came to me from the PO with black wheel locks only on the back.
I like the polished lug nuts look, so should I get silver wheel locks all around?
Or ditch the locks idea and just put silver lug nuts on the rears?

I live in a quiet neighborhood and keep the car in the locked garage at night, so I'm just thinking silver lug nuts on the rears will be fine.

In which case I will need 2 more non-black lug nuts. Anyone have any extras?

I am planning the super awesome wheel re-finish project soon. will post pics, too.

I had mine on until someone (tire installer) lost the "key" for them and I did not notice right away... Get rid of them, they're trouble...

the poll is going well,,,
looks like I'll take those two rear locks off.

Does anyone have two extra used silver lug nuts available?

I don't want to go get new too shiny ones, used will match better.....
