I just saw a stock purchase advertisement for a company that makes a wheel alarm. It will be made available for sale in the next couple of months. I will look for it and post the name of the company. The alarm works similar with the TPS (tire pressure sensor). It is a small transmitter that looks like a stick on tire balancing weight. There is an audible alarm installed in the car, plus you can program it for remote alarm. I will post more details when I find the advertisement.

im not sure how sensitive the oem alarm is, but you dont need to wheel lock key to take off the lug nut... all you really need to do is get a slightly oversized socket and use a mallet and hammer the wheel lock... and i would probably look for a honda with a five lug conversion or rsx wiht g35 rims, being how they left a honda jack behind

late post but damn that sucks to see, and the sad thing is that there really isn't a way to prevent it.
There are tools out there that most all theives have that locksmiths have (and sadly some sell) that just slips over your lug locks and rips them off. Even car alarms aren't going to do any good because like one guy who used to be a car theif and actually turned his life around was talking to a group of us at a car show when the guy running it brought him in told us...He said experienced theives now can take your hood off without settign the alarms off, if they do set your alarm off some bring water and soak the alarm and short it out so it can't go off. Its rediculous. I wanna keep my car in the batcave..lol.
