Tire question Are locking wheel nuts still necessary?

I can remember seeing cars up on bricks years ago with the wheels stolen but now, it appears people just steal the car. So, is it worth having locking wheel nuts?

They don't protect against shit. Anyone can buy a set of keys for not much. If someone wants to steal your wheels, they will.
