Just use wheel locks

Let me know if there are any wheels you are interested in, I can help you out.

not to rain on your parade but, Snap On makes a tool that takes your locks off in about 10 seconds........Essentially a socket with grooved teeth.....hit it on, and twist off.

If someone wants em they're gonna be gone....simple as that.....

But, hopefully it'll keep honest people honest.

Get insurance to cover the wheels........best bet....

This is tthe truth to it all................especially in a hotel.
