And again, I live in a small town, no need for that sort of thing here.
Take it from someone who used to roll around with wheel thieves; wheel locks are in-fact a deterrent.

For the record, I didn't personally steal myself but didn't have a car and was very young, so they were like my bad Uber.

It's not that wheel locks are not impenetrable but to remove them can be a tedious and noisy process, which attracts attention, which is the last thing you need in, that line of business, unless it's maybe a stormy night where you can cover your tracks.

Point is, you never know how many times they kept your wheels attached, unless one day you get slipping without them and your can ends up on some cinder blocks.
