Mcguard locks ineffective
After laying out a healthy chunk of cash for the wheels and tires I installed Mcguard locks, which seemed like a good idea. On my last trip to work on the car I could not find the key socket. So I had to try to remove the locks. Afer trying a few things I came up with a solution that required no special tools, did not damage the wheels and took 15 seconds per wheel. So don't think that your zillion dollar wheel and tires are safe. If you lose your key, send me a PM.

I had a similar issue with a factory wheel lock, ended up using one of the very inexpensive sockets with all of the spring loaded pins sold to fit any type of bolt head. They work great.
