So i just got my lift put on with new wheels and tires....ive had numerous people compliment me on them and as we all know for ever one person that likes them another wouldnt mind taking them for themselves. so, how can i safeguard my truck? Where can i purchase those wheel lock lugnuts? new alarm system? or am i worrying too much?

 

locking lugs will slow them down about 2 mintues..... there is not much you can do except get an alarm thats senstive, Even than, if their good they can fry the control module and you wont hear a thing....


best bet is a well lite area and a .45

 

An alarm, wheel locks, a big dog, a gun and insurance. If someone wants your wheels, they're probably going to get them. About the only thing that would stop them is if they're so ugly no one would want them or have an unusual bolt pattern that can't be used by someone else.

Look at it from a positive perspective. Maybe they will wait till you need tires and actually save you money! Plus you get to maybe pick a new style of wheel. If they steel mine, I hope the truck falls on them while they are trying to steal them; that way I can kick them while they are down.

 

ditto ish... i encourage it... lol just means i get to pick a new set of wheels.. oooo how id love to have new wheels..

 

i have had many compliment on mine also. But I'm not worried. I park in my driveway right outside my Window and I am a light sleeper and if I'm not there its in front of anywhere I am in or around eyesite. Also not many people around go for truck wheels. If you drive a Honda its a different story tho lol. Get wheel locks if it makes you feel safer they will slow them down if they know what they are doing but if they don't, which will be rare you'll be in luck cuz they will look and keep going

 

put a boot on all the wheels at night. lol

 

Speaking as a police officer, all you can do it make them harder to steal so a theif will go for an easier target. Get locking lugs, an alarm, etc.

 

Get a Tesla coil.
