Uh, did you count the actual number of unique cars you found with stolen wheels? Many of the pictures are of the same car. A quick count tells me you found about half a dozen. Not bad for the millions of cars on the road. Yes, wheels are stolen. We've had reports of the thefts here. But it is very rare and there are FAR more threads from people who have lost their key asking how to get locks off. Do a search.
it was just a general image search to show some cars on blocks with their wheels stolen. search results show most popular and common photos multiple times from multiple sources, it's just how search results work. my only point was to show that YES, nice wheels get stolen, and some of the higher end wheel locks are actually complicated enough to be a good theft deterrent, but not a definitive solution.
