For those that have their Hellcats now, did the car come with wheel locks? All of the pre-production pictures I've seen have none installed. However, both of our SRTs came with Mopar wheel locks.

If they don't come with it I guess I'll be keeping my current set or getting new ones on the off chance the current ones don't fit.

Certainly am glad that I don't live in a area that requires a person to lock their wheels to their car.

wow. wheel locks are cheap. There are thieves everywhere and when they find out how much OEM Hellcat rims are it's cheap insurance.

I don't live in the ghetto or anything, and knock on wood, have had no issues. But as mentioned, it's cheap insurance. If two cars are next to each other that have the same wheels and one set has locking lugs and the other doesn't, I'm going to steal the ones without first as it's less hassle. Sure they can force the locks off but it takes more time.

I only asked since as far as I know, it was pretty standard for the SRT cars to come with them (but I could be wrong) in the past.

both my SRT's had them but i want to say the dealer charged me for them on my 15. could be wrong though

Plus the OEM lug nuts are not exactly that great either...I can't see Chrysler going with an updated lug nut for the hellcat lol

Most of the SRT customers I speak with did not have them from Factory. Could be a dealer level install.

Brampton installed wheels locks? Never heard of that.

Good to know, thanks. Must've been a dealer install on both of our 2010s (got them both from same dealer 3 weeks apart) that we weren't charged for. Were already on the car with the key and 4 stock lugs in the trunk. I guess I'll just take the locks off my B5 before trading in.

Mine had the Mopar locks on it when I picked it up, but I didn't ask if the dealer did that or if it was done at the factory.

 

[Denzien]

If the dealer did it, he probably would have tacked on $250 in parts and labor

 

[iamawild1]

Mine have them but they were a gift from the dealer. There's nothing in all the cars paperwork that mentions them. Im not complaining on free locks!

That's what everyone says until you see the news.

No cars come from the factory with wheel locks. The one and only that does are 1500 trucks with 20 inch wheels for whatever reaon. And those don't even come installed on the truck. They are in a bag in the glove box.

Other than that if they have wheel locks on them they are dealer installed items during the pdi process.

I have wheel locks on all my cars. Just a smart thing to do. The locks for the HC are waiting in the tool box.
