Foolproof way to not get wheels stolen?
Well, last night someone jacked the wheels off of my Mustang. Each wheel had 2 sets of different wheel locks, and I have a Clifford RSX alarm and they still managed to yank'em without getting caught (second time in a year!).
I'm about to throw some wheels on the WRX, but don't want this to happen again. Any tips? Is there a wheel lock out there that can't be popped off?

typically the mcgard spline drives are harder to get off because of the design. But alot of it has to do with the wheel design also making it hard to get at the lugnut from the sides. In order to get 2 locks off they most likely knew your car. Do you frequent a tire place for rotations or anything? That'd be the most likely suspect. They know whats on your car, and where you live.
you must be a heavy sleeper.. to not hear your alarm go off buddy.. you need to put a car cover or something.. to cover your car.. and make yourself low profile as possible.. but since it is the 2nd time.. they probably know you... soo =/... yep... listen for your alarm man.. they had to lift the car up .. soo the alarm had to go off
