My local parts manager hasn't called me back yet; he said he had to do some additional research with Chrysler. I'll have to show him this pic.
Thanks very much E55 KEV; I really appreciate your help. You probably have found the solution here on "wheellocks" for this model series. I just thought DCX screwed up on this item as did my parts manager. Maybe DCX did consider the hubcap space when coming up with this lock system (AND FOUND ANOTHER WAY TO CHARGE Chrysler for parts for this car). :^((

Just got off the phone with my local Mopar parts manager. He states that Mopar has now recognized that both the pic in the 300 accessory brochure and their previous locknuts are incorrect and not valid. The locknuts I had were made for any 300 wheel which does not have a hubcap (cover).
Further, Mopar is developing a new lockNUT for the 300C or any 300 model with hubcaps. They will have nuts which are able to be fit under the hubcap.
So, we wait until this modified product becomes available. Probably a couple of month, IMO.
