Mine are the wheel lock lug kind, but they are chrome. They cost $1 each when I bought them from some generic hop-up wheel store here in South FL. I think I got about 32-40 spares but it would cost too much to mail 'em. If you absolutely can't find them though, I will hook you up... :D

thanks for the info.good to know. i now know where to go in case i don't get some locally.so you would want $$ for 16 lugnuts(will this lugnuts require a special key)and as for shipping don't worry about it if i get them from you i will use my ups account like that you won't have to worry about the freight charges............juan

You can buy those chrome tunner lugs any local tire/wheel shop. Such as Bell Tires, Discount Tires Co.

They run about $1 each and should come with the special tunner lugs socket. I dunno what's the bolt pattern on Scions, but i suggest you buy the total lugs you need - 4.
For example,
if your car is 5 lug pattern then buy
5 x 4 - 4 = 16
4 lug pattern then buy
4 x 4 - 4 = 12

and buy a set of McGard Tunner wheel locks (about $40) as set. The reason is because the tunner lug socket is a generic socket that any one can get a hold of. McGard's lock key is individually cut so no one can copy it.

You don't need to pay me, as I said they are extras (I was double shipped). Just pay the freight. But, like JINSU said, you should get a non-generic wheel lock also. These have a key (I got 3), but they are generic. Keep me informed... :D
