Wheel Locks?

So last night I had a crazy dream that my wheels were stolen while I was at work.

I don't really park anywhere really where that would ever happen but I'd rather have piece of mind that I'm making it less likely of happening. Wondering if I should go with oem or aftermarket brand and if the the keys are unique to the locks themselves.

I know it's not going to stop someone that's determined to take it but that's not really the point.

If it slows down or potentially stops a petty theif that only goes for it since its a easy grab then that's fine with me. If someone sees that there is a little more effort to be done to take it and it stops them, then the wheel locks do exactly what I wanted.

I believe mcguard or however it is spelled is a good brand from what I've heard. But pretty much any set as long as it has a lock is about the best you are going to get. Like others said, if they want them they are going to take them regardless.

To OP if that's all your really looking for just to have someone think twice any wheel lock will do the job.
