Locking wheel nuts ?

I remove my wheels once a year for cleaning/protecting, and rotating.
I don't like locking wheel nuts because if they're removed several times, they quickly become worn and are more likely to fail, conversely, if they're left on for a couple of years, they tend to become too tight to be removed easily, and can fail.
To be honest the MG locking wheel nuts actually seem to be a better design than some I've seen, but after 40 years of being a 'hater', I'm not likely to change now, and it's definitely easier to remove a wheel if all the nuts are the same.
Thanks for that.
Guess I'm just lazy and leave it up to the vehicle experts to do all that stuff!!

Have you tried the Locking wheel nut haters support group? They can discuss your concerns; maybe one day you will love the locking wheel nuts.
