What are "locking nuts"? How do they work?

He probably means those keyed nuts you can only get off with the proper adaptor on your wrench.

You are right.
I made a too literal translation from spanish ("tuercas bloqueadoras").

Yes, in some dark sites of my city the thiefs exchange the 4 wheels for bricks on less of 3 minutes... for example, if you leave your car on the "surveyed" parking area of a mall. My people are very craft...on both ways.

That's a very nice look. Wheels are the focal point of a car. May I suggest chrome trim rings to finish it off?

Yogui

Will trade you a set of 4 new Volvo trim rings for a traditional Peruvian alpaca poncho! You know any Alpacas? ;-)

I will gladly make up the difference in the trade!

George would you translate my humor as needed? My Spanish is terrible!

Hi. Alpaca are like camels... spits over you half of the time!

If you really want a peruvian poncho, please, send your e-address to my email (available on my data) for further contact (volvo does not make alpacas) :-)

Durante muchos años casi todos los carros de los EE UU usaban el mismo
tamaño de tuercas. Por eso todavía quedan muy común.
Algunas tienen el hex 13/16" como las bujías, especialmente los vehículos
militares. Afortunadamente la llave del 122 tiene ambos tamaños.

Y segun parece, algunos modernos: esas tuercas eran para un Jeep Cherokee de este milenio!.
