Question:

I am looking for a lug lock for the wheels on my boat trailer. I don’t know if there is a certain size that I need to get can you help me with this? Wheel size is 225/75R15 with 5 lugs

There are several different wheel stud sizes available but nearly all trailer wheels use 1/2 inch studs and a 60 degree taper which the lock kit part # RG01-150 would work well with. Especially on a 5 lug hub I can almost guarantee this is what you'd want. The hubs with more than 5 lugs can sometimes have 9/16 inch studs but you'd have 1/2 like what this would need.

2020, Minnie Winnie 27 foot tandem axle on travel trailer, with spare tire. I would need 2 two packs of lug locks. Any you recommend . 5 lug pattern. I assume most are standard thread and lug depth. Thank

I think the Redline Wheel Lock Set # RG01-150 that Jameson mentioned above is really nice. As long as you have 1/2" wheel bolts (which is very likely) they will work great. I linked a video demonstration below so you can see exactly how they work.
