Luxor wire wheels true loc

Luxor wire wheels with true-loc install

This wheel is truly coming off of the car

[@wizevideo]

The wheels have been updated to short lug nuts.I will post new update video soon. I was also missing the inner lock bolts to the true knock off. Not a safety issue but a security issue. Thank you all who spotted my mistakes.

Great video

[@dimosscratch2797]

If I see correctly, it seems to me that you are using lug nuts with a dome. This can be potentially problematic because the domes can prevent the wire wheel from properly locking its teeth into the adapter. There is a youtube video ("HOW TO MOUNT WIRE RIMS ON YOUR RIDE", starting at 4min) that provides a good explanation.

Thanks for the advice, will look into it.

[@briank3799]

Always use the acorn style lug nuts where it's open on the end ( see all the way through the hole)

[@dimosscratch2797]

@@wizestylegraphics1731 I am very relieved to see that you noticed my message, hope you managed to get your hands on some open-type lug nuts. Isn't it remarkable how useful youtube can be for things like that? Enjoy the nice wheels and drive safe.

I herd you need the actual adapter from luxor to able to use that edge knockoff. how true is that? I just bought those exact edge knockoffs and I have those exact adapters. how have they worked for you?

[@wizevideo]

When I ordered the True Lock, this is what I got. I will eventually buy the actual adapter with the holes to lock in the rim. But it seems to be working with the regular adapters. I still like them because you don't need no hammer. I don't really think it matters but it beats the purpose of true Lock. True lock is more of a security system to keep thieves from stealing your rims.

@@wizevideo oh ok so then the ones I have should work. cool man thanks for replying

[@dgh82dg29]

Did u use the edge knockoff with the locking adapter or regular adapter ?

[@wizevideo]

I used regular adapters. But I will be getting the locking adapters.

[@martinp53]

Hey what's up I just got my wheels same one's. Want to know how they held on since your video posted.

[@wizestylegraphics1731]

They holding up good but really hard to say because my car is mostly in garage. And I do spray them with liquid wrench to keep them from rusting from moisture in rain season. My front rim does get very tight after taking it out for a long cruise. Not sure if it’s from my hub on car or the edge knock off.

[@edwardolivo6182]

What size are those wheels ?

[@wizevideo]

These are a little bigger than most people use but you get a smoother ride. They are 205x75x14

@@wizevideo 14s look better on big cars. I'm looking for 14s for a 76 Caprice. How much are these right now?

[@pelonpalma904]

We’re did u get this tool at?

[@wizevideo]

From Luxor website.

[@wizevideo]

But the breaker bar and 1/2 inch impact socket was purchased at Harbor Freight

[@TheKansasfull]

U need open face lugs brother, and those aren’t true locking bc they don’t lock onto the adapter, they sell a adapter that has a face plate to lock the knock off onto

[@dimosscratch2797]

I am really interested in understanding how the TRU-Lock mechanism works. If you have such adapters (and corresponding knock-offs), it would be great to see a short video.

[@wizevideo]

It’s just an alloy cover on bolts but I am going to switch them out to be on safe side. The true lock is from Luxor wire wheels. This is their patent pending design. The screws on knock off screws onto adapter. These adapters have extra wide outer edge for screws.

[@juansegura9210]

Did you need to use spacers on 14s going on lincoln town car?

[@wizestylegraphics1731]

Not sure, but I'm sure they will be able to answer that at the rim shop.

[@tadatpbc]

Luxor's are garbage

[@wizevideo]

They are not the best but still a lot better than most china wheels. You must have Daytons or Zenith. Can’t beat Luxor for the price though.

[@tadatpbc]

I literally just bought a set of Luxors.. I'm beyond disappointed. Not exaggerating when I say the quality of the chrome is very bad and full of defects. I've seen random Chinas that look better.. I'm mad

[@wizevideo]

@@tadatpbc you are right, the chrome does show scratches and a bit blurry. I also have OG wheels which are a little better but also cost a little more.

[@nelsona779]

Even Daytons are china so for the price not bad ​@wizevideo

😂I'm Rollin on garbage then 😅
