    Curb rash, nobody wants a jacked up wheel!

    Seriously, if someone is into stealing wheels then they will have a key for just about whatever lock you put on it.

    ...but as far as locks go RAD makes some of the best, both lugs and studs: http://www.radusadirect.com/

    Drive. No one wants to try and steal a rim at 80 mph.


    or



    Get a trunk monkey

    take your car to a farm and drive around for a while. you will have enough sh!t on your wheel to make the theft not want it.
