Default Gorilla or Mcgard?

Okay so I am looking for a new set of wheel locks, asked friends what they suggested and it came down to Gorilla and McGard. Know my friends a little to well, I trust the forusm more. What would you guys suggest and why? Are the designs different in anyway?

Ive never dealt with McGuard, though they seem pretty good. But i liked the Gorrillas I used to have, except they were a different size than the lugnuts, so you needed 2 sockets to tighten your wheels. I think the best ones are the Honda factory ones. they are the same size as the lugnuts, and expensive as hell. they average around $60 a set, but you can get lucky and get them for $30 or less. I got mine when a local dealership had an online coupon for $19.99.

no, Honda has their own. Im not sure who makes them, but its not Gorilla. just go to the parts counter at your local stealership.

I've had Gorilla for two different cars, Honda and a VW. They are both reputable wheel lock manufacturers so go with either.
