i think they are and will always use them but 1 mistake old man did was,
Not check the "key" or attachment(woteva its called) was put back in his vs after havin his suspion work done. So after a while he eneded up gettin and flat and went to change the rims, but guess wot no key. I think this was only 2 weeks after the work was done. went back to suspion place, they coulndt find it and then couldnt get the lock nuts out so they had to do sum drilling and yeah it took them a few hours to get the nuts out and replace them with new ones.
So yeah make sure u check that its put back if someone else is touching your wheels.
