Extended Wheel Bolts with Locks for spacers?

Anyone have any experience with extended wheel bolts with locks? I'm running 12 & 15mm spacers on my M3 and would like a set of bolt locks that fit spacers.

I found a set on ECSTuning but wondered how they hold up and if anyone had experience with them?
would also be interesting to know if every set has a unique lock or are they all
universal

Hi, i had the McGard wheel lock bolts on my M. The quality is good, and they all have a unique key. But the are a little fragile. The ecs bolts looks better, but i don't know how the quality is of the coating.

Might find it easier/more options switching to studs and looking for locks (nuts) instead.
