Wheel locks

Ive seen a bunch of delivered m5s with what looks to be an OEM wheel lock. Does the M5 come with wheels locks?

All it takes is one tech who isn't paying attention and doesn't seat the lock properly and it is destroyed. The are very fragile and after the nightmare I recently had trying to get the lock removed from my X5, I will NEVER have them on another car again.

Remove them if they were included for free and let insurance buy you a new set if someone steals them.

I didnt ask for them, they are not on the OG spec sheet either but they came on my car. I found the wheel lock package in the trunk with the 4 regular studs and the adapter in the packaging.

I always use wheel locks since i have aftermkt wheels, but the car wont ever go to shop with them on. I always put stocks back on for service for this one reason, i just dont trust them to be careful.
