OEM Wheel Locks

How many of you use wheel locks? Apparently BMW offers 2+ styles. I have previously used the model in Picture 1 (with black logo cap). My dealer only has the ones in Picture 2 available.

Any difference between the two? I was surprised to see they only come with one key because the packaging has a cutout for a second. Can anyone confirm that they only come with a single key. TIA

Edit: I believe Picture 2 is called the enhanced security wheel lock set.

I can confirm that I bought the second one. I have only seen other F10's with the same wheel lock. Yes single key only.

Thanks. For the price they should provide a second key.

Yeah I hear you. It's either that or get the wheels to your 70k car pilfered. It's the lesser of two evils. Although the Hyundai I bought came with wheel locks. Break My Wallet.

Expecting to pick up my F10 535xi as early as friday 10/22. .Surely by early next week. I told my CA to put some wheel locks on my car. I live in NYC...nuff said. I'm also getting the mud flaps.

My dealer put the 2nd ones on without asking or charging. I was shocked!
