Which wheel clamp fits over domed hubcaps?

KevH · Jun 20, 2012

I am looking for a wheel clamp that fits over domed hub caps.

I currently have one of these but I reckon it isn't enough to deter the thieving gets out there. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HEAVY-DUT...cessories_Safety_Security&hash=item19c59d3a4b

Anybody got anything suitable?

I don't think you'll get anything which fits over the hubcap, I think you'll have to get a standard one and take your hubcap off when you want to fit it. Why not keep the one you have and buy a steering wheel lock or pedal lock as well to be doubly sure. :mrgreen: I think one of the guys on here made a really sturdy pedal lock system, I'm sure someone could tell us who it was.

How much is your budget? A clamp that is actually going to stop them is going to cost about 20 times that price. That thing would last about 5 seconds.

Cheers.

I have already got an order in with Uber Cool for a pedal clamp.

What I want is something that is visible and effective, that will deter even the most determined tea leaf. My existing clamp is *****, I know, but it might deter the odd drunken lout at closing time on a Friday night.

I don't really want to take the domes off every time I use a wheel clamp though; there must be an answer to this. Ditch the domes perhaps?

Maybe I am getting a little paranoid about security :mrgreen:
