I have seen so many people on just this forum alone that have had their wheels stolen, or have been screwed over by some selling wheels. I guess people are doing anything they can to get money right now. I am sorry to those who have had this crap happen, including myself.

So, that's your reasoning? No thought about reducing the chances of your wheels getting jacked?

Damn man that really sux, Sorry to hear it man. Wheel locks do work, I used to run a Pep Boys and everytime we had to take off wheel locks (people would always lose the key) it was a major PIA. Almost evertime we messed up the wheels and thats with air tools. I think you would hear someone outside your window with a impact gun..LOL

That sucks man.

It kinda makes me not to put wheels on my sedan. Where i live, the price of used G35's has come to the level where civic and other import enthusiasts can afford one now. So now i have a feeling instead of seeing civic and accords sitting on blocks like i sometimes do, they i will be looking for G37's and G35's to steal rims off.

Locks do slow them down, but if you are the only one in the area with OEM 19's..and they want them, they will get them!
