Wheel Security??????
In my apartment there have been alot of recent thefts of the wheels off of some of the cars. At this point i'm getting pretty worried about it because I am planning on picking up my MR soon as it gets in (hopefully within the next week). I was wondering if anyone had any ideas as for wheel lock suggestions or possible recommendations for beefing up my security. It would'nt be that bad except the damn apartment building is not doing much to help the residents with keeping their cars safe. Anyway any input would be appreciated.

its just like a wheel lock but it has a sleeve on it that spins freely so that you can't put one of those tapered wheel lock removers on it. The key fits between the sleeve and the actual nut itself that way they are extremely hard to get off without the key

I've doubled my locks up with McGard Locks in addition to the Manufacturer's locks. So that's 8 locks thieves will have to go through to get my shoes.

gorilla locks are not good. they make six locks with keys it not hard at all for them to find the one that will match you Evo. Go to Benz, BMW or other, no one will think of it.
