I have security cameras around my house to at least see who did it...Alarm in my car for motion/glass breakage.
Definitely wheel locks would help,...
I would've saved the $500 and used that towards new/used aftermarket rims and tires and sell the fornts to recoup some money...
Good luck and ask your neighbors if they saw anything,..
Id personally stake out myself with a lure and have a hugh bat handy....I also keep my glock 9mm, Sig 40, mossberg 500, and remington 870 handy...
