these are pretty good Home - McGard: Innovative Security Products
which ever you go for make sure they are high quality as cheaper ones are made from softer meaterial thus making it easier to hit a socket over them and undo them (not that ive done this often of course
) and dont use air impact guns to put them on

no i never use impact guns on the cars i work on, its just not worth the hassle if they strip.
i need the new ones to be slimline to fit intot he wheels, i dont think the mcgard ones will be slim enough???

Don't use the McGaurd ones they are pants. Ive had two sets of these and both were binned. I never used an impact gut either but garages use them and the clover pattern in the lock key bends out of shape. The last garage damaged the inside of the wheels removing them after sheering the lock key. I now only fit bolts. If someone want your wheels badly enough they'll take them or the car.
Stay clear of the McGaurd stuff is my opinion.
