Stands up to regular wheel changes and resists corrosion over time. Provides dependable service for routine driving and workshop use.
Straightforward fit and replacement – with standard installation and pattern-based key matching
Installs like a standard lug nut using normal fitting procedures, while removal requires the supplied or a matching patterned key. If the original key is lost, replacement is possible by comparing the anti-theft screw pattern or using an image reference.
Easy for workshops accustomed to BMW wheels and simple to replace when a matching pattern is identified. Keeps maintenance practical without sacrificing security.
