Default wheel lock question

I will need longer lugs and spacers for my fronts once I change my wheels. I am guessing I cant use the oem locks that I had on before bc they are short, and will need to get new locks for the fronts.

questions is, do I just live with 2 keys (and 2+2 spare keyed lugs) or is there a way to get longer lugs "keyed"

thanks

If you are getting new wheels, why not get the correct offset so that you don't need spacers??? Then you can just use your regular wheel locks.

Did you eventually sell your 17" 10 spoke rims?

I run my wheels without wheel locks. They are a PITB when I have to quickly swap wheels.
