My friend had these on his Corvette and I liked them because they replaced all the lugs with the same style locking lug, never liked the look of a single mismatched locking lug. Cost a bit more, but worth it in my opinion, $89 at Phastek.

Gorilla Factory Style Locking Lug Nuts (Set of 20) in Chrome :: 2010-2017 Camaro

*Fits OEM 2010-2017 Camaro Wheels

The Gorilla locking lug nuts are the ultimate in security for your factory wheels. The factory style locking lug nuts replace your factory lug nuts, designed to match the form and function of the factory lug these offer the best protection.

Each set includes a unique Lock Key and Registration number for identification
Dual Hex Lock Key (13/16" and 7/8") to work with factory lug wrenches
14mm x 1.50 Thread Size
System of 20 Chrome Wheel Locks

thats a good idea of putting locks on all the lugs and not just 1 per wheel

I installed myself, though a bit time consuming without a lift. Need a good torque wrench too, specs are for 140 lbs on the Camaro!

Yeah, I’ve had that happen a few times with them. But I verified it with Gorilla’s site before purchasing.

Amazon doesn’t incorporate the Camaro into the database ,most of the stuff they said won’t fit does ....if you get people here that have used it , it’s Amazon mistake. 14 x 1.5 is correct.
