    Question Wheel locks

    This probably is a silly question, but do all BMW's have wheel locks? Today i got a warning that my tire pressure is low. I inflated to specs but wanted to take in soon to get it looked at. I looked in the trunk where I thought it should be but nowhere to be found. I looked at the lug nuts and no pattern on the top. So I'm thinking they dont have any. I hate to take it in just to realize it's a waste of time. Thanks.

    They are not standard. I have seen some fitted as factory options. It's listed on the window sticker at something stupid like $250. Some dealers put them on, and add on a nominal fee to the sales price as well. And some customers buy them after the fact. To be honest, I hate them. They're not worth the hassle. If some jackoff with an impact gun overtightens them, be prepared to pay someone with a special removal tool, or catch hell trying to remove them without the special tool.
