21 Limited .no wheel locks?

[Topsella40]

just got a 21 limited with the 22 inch wheels ...I don't see wheel locks on the wheels. Am i missing something? every car or truck i had with wheels over 20 inchs came with wheel locks..

Not a factory option. My dealer added them, but I removed them. They are useless really. They are easy to defeat and if they want the wheels, they will get them.

My BTS didn't come with them either and I'm ok with that. They aren't automatically installed anyway. To me they are a pain in the @ss and if someone wants the wheels they'll take them anyway they can

Maybe the original owner removed them (assume you've bought used) ? I removed mine immediately, they're pain in the *** if you ever have to change the wheel after catching flat tire.
If someone local to me wants them, I can give them out for free (they're in the original Mopar blister packaging).

I had the option for them but there's really no need for wheel locks where I live. Maybe if I lived in an area with high crime rates I'd use them, or parked in unsecure areas for long stretches of time. As mentioned already, they won't stop someone from stealing the wheels but they may slow someone down and cause them to move to easier pickings.

The dealer installed them on mine as soon as it hit the lot.
It was a $100 dealer-installed option, along with the $2,500 dealer-installed protection plan (that was immediately removed by my imperative).

My '20 Limited didn' t have them either.

Special order or dealer installed would be my guess. My 19 had wheel locks, my 21 doesn’t!

Wheel locks are a dealer add on, even if selected as an option when ordering.

And as mentioned they are useless. Anyone steeling wheels is probably carrying around a set of easy out style nut removinfs that take no longer to use than a regular lug nut socket. It's not a deterrent anymore.

You're better off, not only are they pointless, they are fugly

I took my set off that the dealer gave me for free and put https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07CHTYK82/

Just as much security as the locking lugs except they look great.

Mine are so hard from the cold they currently pull right off. But on summer months they are like glue.

Saying they look great is subjective

Took the words right out of my mouth.

Anything is subjective, just like how I can say Destroyer Grey is the worst color for a truck.


They look better then the ugly silver lugnuts they are covering up. on a nearly all black truck because Ram cheaped out and didn't provide matching black lugs on an 80k truck.

They don't use black lug nuts because there isn't a single black lug nut manufactured anywhere that will stay black. The coating will come off and rust will form. Which would cause multiple warranty claims, and bad customer relations

Or just spend a couple of extra dollars and get black or red lug nuts.
