alam ko may nabibiling mga specialized wheel lock nuts sa mga tire shops. mag inquire ka na lang. those wheel nuts require a special key to remove..

You can use those special lug-nuts to secure your wheels from theft. The problem is if you loose the special tool/key for the locking lugnuts, you have a big problem.

I suggest buying them from a wheel shop. You still need to physically match them to the wheels you bought.

When I said "physically match" I meant the bottom part of the lugnut. It may be flat, round or tapered. It should match what your wheels' holes.
