A device for locking the wheel of a vehicle. The device comprises a main module adapted to be attached to the wheel and configured to cover nuts or bolts for attaching the wheel to the vehicle. The device further comprises an insert structure comprising an upper part and a lower part wherein the upper part is rotatably joined to the lower part by an axial joint. The insert structure is further transferable from an open position to a closed position upon rotation of said upper part around said axial joint wherein the insert structure in said open position is adapted for insertion in the wheel concentrically to the axis of rotation of the wheel and wherein the insert structure in said closed position is adapted for fixating the insert structure in said wheel upon transfer to the closed position after insertion in the wheel. The device further comprises a center bolt adapted to be connected through the main module to the lower part of the insert structure by means of a threading as well as a locking mechanism adapted to be arranged in a locking state in which the locking mechanism prevents the center bolt from rotating relative the main module, and in an open state in which the locking mechanism allows the center bolt to rotate relative the main module.

A device for locking the wheel of a vehicle. The device comprises a main module adapted to be attached to the wheel and configured to cover nuts or bolts for attaching the wheel to the vehicle. The device further comprises an insert structure comprising a first part and a second part wherein the first part engages the second part and wherein the insert structure is transferable from a first position to a second position upon compression of a spring. Moreover, the insert structure in said second position is adapted for insertion in the wheel concentrically to the axis of rotation of the wheel and the insert structure in said first position is adapted for fixating the insert structure in said wheel upon transfer to the first position after insertion in the wheel. The device further comprises a center bolt adapted to be connected through the main module to the second part of the insert structure by means of a threading as well as a locking mechanism adapted to be arranged in a locking state in which the locking mechanism prevents the center bolt from rotating relative the main module, and in an open state in which the locking mechanism allows the center bolt to rotate relative the main module.

A security fastener assembly is provided with a cap having a standard tool bearing surface and an attachment portion formed opposite the tool bearing surface. A fastener body has a mating attachment portion formed at a first end along which the cap is secured and a keyed security feature formed adjacent the mating attachment portion. A second end of the fastener body has a threaded fastener portion for securing the fastener assembly to a vehicle. The threaded portion of the fastener body is installed with rotation in a first direction. Engaging the tool bearing surface of the cap and rotating in a second direction opposite the first direction does not rotate the threaded portion of the fastener body. The fastener body is removable with the keyed security feature.

A wheel anti-theft apparatus comprising: a base plate and an outer plate, wherein the base plate comprises a locking pin and stud holes, and wherein the outer plate comprises lug nut security sleeves and a locking pin receiver. The wheel anti-theft apparatus, wherein studs are inserted through the stud holes of the base plate, a wheel is disposed on the base plate with the studs extending through the stud holes of the wheel and the locking pin extending through the center of the wheel, wherein lug nuts are screwed onto the studs, and outer plate is disposed on the wheel, wherein the lug nut security sleeves fit securely over the lug nuts and locking pin extends into the locking pin receiver.
