Wouldn't bother with them mate, they will be on some chav's BMX within a week
I've had a nightmare with valve caps over the years, even bought the locking ones and the kids had them.

Actually - depending on quality, what they're made out of, weight and the like - £180 for wheel nuts is a reasonable amount of money but certainly not the most expensive I've ever seen.
