Video Transcript for The CLUB Tire Claw XL Wheel Lock Review
Lock up your ATVs, your golf carts, your big travel trailers, or your construction trailers with The Club Tire Claw XL. The first thing I notice right out of the box one we get three keys, but look at these keys. I don't think anybody's gonna be able to pick this. I think that's really cool. And they look really cool as well. You use this to unlock it, which spreads the claw out.
This is gonna work with any tire up to 12 inches wide. So once you put it up here, it clicks in for you. So once it's unlocked and you widen it out you don't have to have those keys anymore. We do have a door here which is much better than just a rubber cover cause those just eventually stretch out. And this is just a nice little door which seals it up nice just to keep it nice and clean.
This is a great way to deter theft. One, it's nice and bright and red. So the whole goal here is just to have these locking devices in place. So the thief walks on past your stuff and maybe goes to somebody else that doesn't have it. So this is gonna prevent your wheel from turning.
If you go all the way up here and they try to back this thing up, it's gonna tear some stuff up, but then once it hits that ground, it's not really gonna go anywhere. It's gotta breakthrough all this steel and it's all made of steel. And even if you did, maybe just forget that it's on there it's not really gonna scratch it up too bad as long as you stop in time cause it does have a powder coated finish but they also dip the ends with rubber. So these wheels, aluminum, they're gonna scratch easy. With this, We don't have to worry about it scratching.
I have messed with all of the wheel locks on our website. Where this one falls, I would definitely say it's my second choice. The reason I say that is I like how it operates. It's very quick and easy to use. It's not gonna scratch my wheels. But the only reason why it's number two on my list is because Trimax does make one that is gonna be a wheel chock as well. So with this, you're gonna need to also chock up your wheels to prevent it from rolling. This right here is only for a theft deterrent. That's the only reason why the Trimax one wins, just because it's the best of both worlds. But this one does operate a lot better. And that's pretty much it, a very simple and easy thing to do to give you peace of mind whenever your stuff is not in sight..

One-piece security wheel lock and anti-theft device for trailers, cars and ATVs. Fits tires up to 12" wide.by: Cindy 11/29/2022
We bought this to use on our rv. It is very easy to use and helps to protect our rv from disappearing in the middle of the night.

I really like this. It makes me feel more secure about my boat that I have a lot of money into.
by: Marvin 07/20/2023
Easy to use, and so far so good, not st olen!
by: Kelly01/07/2019
No one has stolen our trailer which is a plus. However, it doesn't fit as tight as I would like. It seems to be more of a visible deterrent than one that couldn't be removed with a crowbar. I think this would be a 5 star product if it was more adjustable. It is well made.
by: Happy Camper07/10/2015
Buying a tire claw lock from etrailer.com was a painless and easy transaction. My lock arrived on time and was very well packaged.
by: David M07/19/2013
Product works good on trailer but not so well on motorcycle with large rear tire and a low tire wall. My bike tire is well (9inches) under the products max usage size but because of the tire wall low height this unit can be slid off tire and rim by simply pushing to the side and slipping it around rim and tire...
Also I bought two and would have liked them both keyed a like but the charge for such a simple task was outrages.
To sum it up I'm Ok with product...

Get the claw! Perfect deterrent
by: Hartley D.12/08/2018
This tire lock is OUTSTANDING. I've had it for more than a year and it looks brand new! It easily fits around the tires on my side-by-side, is rugged and opens/closes smoothly to secure my vehicle.
by: Kevin T12/24/2016
I love this product, it is perfect for our needs and it the third one we have purchased. The claw is very high quality and provides a quick and convenient way to secure vehicles/trailers. Etrailer.com filled and had our order delivered quickly and they have consistently exceeded our expectations. Great product - Great company!
by: Vincent08/28/2013
Easily installed in second, good price. I love this product and it's a perfect fit for my cargo trailer.
by: Eric 11/08/2019
The XL Tire Claw worked perfectly for our trailer! I received the Claw within a few days of ordering and even got a phone call from customer service letting me know that there was a possibility of it being late but nevertheless, the Claw showed up in far less time than I thought!
by: Alan R01/22/2013
Easy to install. Fits on tire and gives me the peace of mind that no one is going to come onto my property and steal my trailer!
Working with etrailer was a great experience! They keep you informed of your order, when it is received, when they review their stock, and when they ship!
by: Mark08/10/2016
Works well. Serves as a deterrent. Hard to say how effective it would be for a motivated thief to defeat.

- Will The CLUB Tire Claw XL Wheel Lock Work for LT275/70R18 Tire on TruckThe CLUB Tire Claw XL - Wheel Lock # WI491 fits tires up to 12" wide. Since your LT275/70R18 tire measures 10.8" (according to the tire info) this will fit great for your application! If you wanted to go a step further you can get The Club Tire Claw XL Wheel Lock with Lug Nut Protector Plate # WI491-491LNP which is designed to discourage someone from getting at the lug nuts to remove your tire. Attached are some review videos for you to check out.

- Is Drilling Required on a 2001 Ford Taurus to Use The Club Tire Claw XL, # WI491-491LNPYou will not have to do any drilling on your 2001 Ford Taurus to use the Club Tire Claw XL, # WI491-491LNP. The drilling mentioned is to attach that triangle-shaped plate to the claw arm. Otherwise without the plate, you would basically have Tire Claw, # WI491. In either case they clamp around the tire. The one with the plate protects the lug nuts. I have linked a video of the regular Tire Claw so you can see how it works.
view full answer... - Recommended Wheel Lock for Airstream Basecamp Travel TrailerOur most popular wheel lock is the Club Tire Claw XL # WI491-491LNP. It not only clamps around the wheel to keep it from rolling it also covers the lug nuts to help keep a would-be thief from removing the wheel altogether. It will fit tires up to 12 inches wide so it will work just fine on your Basecamp. If you'd like more than one wheel lock, like for your vehicle, you can get multiple Tire Claws that use the same key using # WI491KA-491LNP.
view full answer... - Does Club Tire Claw XL # WI491 Fit Tire Size 275/55R20Yes, since your tire width is 275 mm which is less than 12 inches in width the Tire Claw XL part # WI491 will fit and work well. Price is available at link below.
view full answer... - Will The CLUB Tire Claw XL fit a Trailer with Tire Size 225/75-15A 225/75-15 tire is 225mm or 8.86 inches. The CLUB Tire Claw XL will accommodate wheels and tires up to 12 inches wide, so you should be fine as your tire is under 12 inches.
view full answer... - Will The CLUB Tire Claw XL Wheel Lock # WI491 Fit Golf Cart WheelsThe CLUB Tire Claw XL Wheel Lock # WI491 will fit your 205/65-10 tire's width and it will work for you even if the two claws cannot fully pass into the triangular openings in your alloy wheel. Since the Tire Claw locks at whatever position you choose for its two sides it will still grip your wheel even if the claw cannot fully enter the wheel's openings.
view full answer... - Will the CLUB Tire Claw XL, # WI491 Fit on 275/35-19 TiresThe CLUB Tire Claw XL, # WI491, is designed to fit up to 12 inch wide wheels. A 275/35-19 is going to be about 10.835 inches wide. This size is within the range of the lock so it will work on your tires and wheels. I have included a link to a video review of the lock for you.
view full answer... - Club Tire Claw for a John Deere Tractor Mower X300The standard rear wheel/tire combination on your tractor is 20 by 10 by 8 which is roughly the size of many ATV tires, so the Tire Claw you have selected should work. You will need to make sure that there is room at the rear wheel to install the Tire Claw without interference from the tractor frame, axle or any other parts, and that the wheel/tire combination on your tractor is no more than 12 inches wide.
view full answer... - Wheel Lock that Also Blocks Access to Lug NutsThe Wheel Club # WI490 isn't going to make it easy to access the lug nuts but no, there isn't an adapter that complete covers them. For that I recommend a different version, # WI491-491LNP. I have linked a video review of it for you.
view full answer... - What Wheel Lock Can I Use with Baby Moon Hub Caps?In order to determine if you'll be able to use The Club Tire Claw XL Wheel Lock w/ Lug Nut Protector Plate # WI491KA-491LNP , you'll need to take your Baby Moon hubcaps off and determine whether or not you have solid wheels or not- the Tire Claw XL requires an opening for the clamp to close on in order to work properly. If you've got openings/spokes behind your Baby Moon hubcaps, you will be able to use The Club Tire Claw XL. You could also use the Tire Claw XL # WI491KA that comes without...
view full answer... - Will The Club Tire Claw Lock Fit 22 Inch Diameter Tires?The CLUB Tire Claw XL - Wheel Lock # WI491 is compatible with most 22 inch tires. This product can fit tires up to 12 inches wide so it will fit almost all trailer tires and most vehicle tires. You may also want to consider the Lug Nut Protector Plate for The Club Tire Claw XL Wheel Lock # 491LNP to further protect your investment.
view full answer... - Why Is The Lug Nut Plate Not Already Attached To The Unit Or At Least Pre-drilled?The Club Tire Claw XL Wheel Lock with Lug Nut Protector Plate # WI491-491LNP does not have the hole drilled and tapped because it is a universal fit. If the plate were already mounted in place it would limit the fit on certain tires. The plate is not required to be screwed into position in most cases as the location of the claw and the plate on the tire would prevent removing it or repositioning it. I've attached some videos of the installation for you.
view full answer... - Lock Recommendation for Trailer with Auto Locking Gooseneck CouplerThe best solution we have is going to actually be a wheel lock since we don't have a lock setup that is recommended for an auto-locking Fulton coupler. For that I would recommend the # WI491-491LNP. This covers the lug nuts as well as locks the wheel so not only will the wheel be prevented from turning a thief wouldn't be able to remove the wheel either.
view full answer... - Will the Lug Nut Protector Plate # 491LNP Fit the Stallion Trailer Wheel Lock # 288-02020I went out to the warehouse and found that the Lug Nut Protector Plate # 491LNP did fit the claw of the Stallion Trailer Wheel Lock # 288-02020 but I am not sure if it fit far enough for a wheel. The claws on the Stallion lock have a wedge shape whereas the The CLUB Tire Claw XL # WI491, that the plate is designed to fit, has straight claws. I recommend using the plate on the CLUB Tire Claw XL as opposed to the Stallion Wheel Lock because of this. They actually come together as part #...
view full answer... - Best Wheel Lock for 285/75-16 LT TiresYour 285 series tire is approximately 11.22" wide, so a wheel lock for up to 12" wide tires, like the Club Tire Claw XL Wheel Lock with Lug Nut Protector Plate, part # WI491KA-491LNP that you were looking at should work for you, since the claws don't necessarily need to be placed inside one of the spokes or holes on the wheel. Depending on the style of your wheel, you could possibly grab onto the outer lip, as demonstrated in the attached photos and in the video at the bottom of the page.

- Availability of a Lug Nut Protector Plate for The Club Tire Claw XL Wheel Lock # WI491We do have the lug nut protector plate available for the Tire Claw XL Wheel Lock. You will need part # 491LNP. You will need to drill into the inside of the outer arm on the Tire Claw. The plate comes with mounting hardware. The back has a foam covering to protect the rims. Current pricing is available on the product page.
view full answer... - Wheel Clamp/Lock Recommendation for Tire Size 4-8.0 Sounds like you are looking for a wheel clamp/lock for your tire size of 4-8.0. The Club Tire Claw XL Wheel Lock # WI491KA-491LNP would work well for this as it can fit tire sizes up to 12 inches wide with no minimum tire diameter.
view full answer...
- Does Drilling Protector Plate of Tire Claw Wheel Lock Limit it To Use with One WheelThe plate does require drilling like you mentioned and the purpose of that is so that you essentially custom fit the wheel lock to the application you have. The good news is that if you wanted to reuse the lock on a different wheel you could drill a new hole and you'd be set.
view full answer... - Wheel Lock Recommendation for Tire that is 315 Series in WidthFor a tire size that wide we have the Winner International part # WI491KA which can fit tires up to 12 inches wide. I can't help but notice that the tire size you listed is not a standard trailer tire size. I am hoping this is an off-road trailer since we can't safely recommend passenger vehicle tires on trailers!
view full answer... - Is The CLUB Tire Claw XL WI491KA Sold IndividuallyThe CLUB Tire Claw XL # WI491KA that you referenced is sold individually. It comes with three keys.
view full answer... - Could a Cutting Wheel Or Sawz-All Cut Through The CLUB Tire Claw XL # WI491KA Yes, the The CLUB Tire Claw XL # WI491KA could be cut with a cutting wheel or sawz-all. Theft deterrents are a great way to keep honest people honest, but a dedicated thief with time and opportunity will typically get what they want. It would take a very bold thief that happened to have a cutting wheel on him with enough time and willingness to make a lot of noise to get through the part # WI491KA.
view full answer... - Can the Club Tire Claw XL # WI491-491LNP be Cut ThroughThe The Club Tire Claw XL Wheel Lock with Lug Nut Protector Plate # WI491-491LNP, just like any other lock for any device, is more of a theft deterrent than a sure-fire way to keep someone from stealing your vehicle or getting at your wheels. Given enough time and the right equipment any lock can be beaten. Because of this (and to avoid would-be thieves from researching how much time they need) there are no "cut times" for the Club Tire Claw XL. If you don't like the design of this wheel...
view full answer... - WIll the Club Tire Claw XL # WI491KA-491LNP Wheel Lock Work on my Trailer with Electric BrakesThe Club Tire Claw XL Wheel Lock with Lug Nut Protector Plate, part # WI491KA-491LNP, that you referenced was designed to used on tires that are up to 12 inches wide. This Tire Claw attaches to the tire so the electric brakes of your trailer should not prevent this from being used. If the tires on your trailer are skinnier than 12 inches you could use the # WI491KA-491LNP.
view full answer... - Is The Club Tire Claw XL Wheel Lock Easy to Open When UnlockedIf someone cut the lock on The Club Tire Claw XL Wheel Lock with Lug Nut Protector Plate # WI491-491LNP then it would be easy to open as you can see in the attached review video. This would is the same for the etrailer Trailer Wheel Lock # 288-02020 that you referenced. The design of The Club Tire Claw XL makes it harder to cut the lock without damaging the tire plus it comes with that plate that covers up the lug nuts and gives you more protection so that's my recommendation.
