Lock Nuts? Which brand do you use?

I need to buy a new complete set of lock nuts for my rims and I'm not sure which ones to buy. I know someone who can get Muteki lock nuts for approx. $50 a set. But the golden rule is, you get what you pay for.

So what do you guys use on your rims?

may not be a good idea to post this cuz if they know in advance what locks you use they can buy the same set of locks and jack your rims using the key from their set... then return the locknuts and get their money back... prolly a bad idea.

Muteki is actually a very reputable brand. The only issue is that all of their nuts are the same, so any key will work with any set.

If they are the same McGards I've got... then you guys are on drugs. Not every set is unique I'm talking about the spline drive ones.
