I purchased a 2016 Touring, and someone suggested McGuard wheel locks, but there are several sizes and I don't know the thread size on the car. Does anyone know?
Thanks

Ok good, those are the ones I ordered from Amazon.com for 22 bucks
But I also saw others that got good ratings as well but the size says 12mmx1.5 so I was wondering if its the same thing as m12.x1.5

yup, if thats what you got ordered then your golden...though, when i installed it on my wheels, the locks were a bit longer than the stock lugnuts so it will sit a bit higher than the stock ones. but screw thread/pitch is exact.

But what about the other size ones? 12mm x 1.5? Is that the same thing?
I was told to put multiple wheel locks on my tires to make them harder to steal

I'd be interested to know which parts you ended up purchasing and how they fit/look.

would 12x1.25 be a better fit?

Photo attached, I have 2 sets on there, one came with the car, and when I had my LED interior lights installed, I'd also brought another set of wheel locks to put on, the tech and I were chatting and he told me I had purchased the wrong size, that Amazon's stupid parts advisor had told me the wrong size. He said he had an extra set of the Honda ones laying around and put them on for free for me. No charge for the locks either. He also told me that the wheel locks Honda's branded are actually McGuard wheel locks. I have 2 sets on my wheels right now. I figure make them more annoying to steal right? I'm going to put a 3rd set on at some point. And also don't store the key in the glove box, store it in some out of the way place.
What I have is 12x 1.5

Thanks for the info and the pic. I'd like to see some aftermarket product photo's if anyone has them.

The McGuard set looks identical to the Honda branded set, because McGuard makes the Honda branded ones. I was told by 2 different people that the McGuard are some of the best made
