Get locks if it make you feel better. If you know what your doing you can take a wheel off just about as fast if its locked.

PS, do not lose the keys or you will find out its not hard!

I got mine from GM when the car was bought. I acknowledge they won't stop a pro, but they will deter the amateurs and I like the look.
