Hey all,
excited just bought my new S3, waiting for it to come in.

It does not have the wheel locks as a dealer installed option ($105 i believe) and I'm wondering if you all have wheel locks - if you think it is necessary - and if so, can I just get any type that fit - https://smile.amazon.com/Gorilla-Au...F8&qid=1493602406&sr=1-3&keywords=wheel+locks

or should I get the audi specific ones (can buy online from Audi I believe for like $60 or so)

You'll need to get Audi specific ones which are like bolts. The locks you posted are nuts, which are more commonly used in American and Asian cars.

You'll need to get the Audi brand locks as they come with these plastic covers to match the other bolts.

not sure if theft over in your area is high but here its not so much. most steals Japanese car wheels and not euro wheels. the euro wheels don't fit Japanese cars so they tend to not bother with our cars here.
