well if you were in the business of stealing rims then you would have the lock remover kit 
and I never once said it was just as easy... so theres goes your logic...
i understand you are trying to defend your purchase and thats fine.. nothing wrong with that... i used to have wheels locks as well.. its more of a sense of security...
and btw its not a "thief" kit as you refer it to... every good tow company and tire shop has the kit in case they need to remove you lock nut if you dont have the key with you..

By your logic you are claiming that a set of rims bolted to a car with locking lug nuts are stolen just as easily as a set of rims sitting on the curb.
I don't know any other way to say it. If it takes longer, they are less likely to be stolen. If I were in the business of stealing things and suddenly see that things are going to take a lot longer than I am comfortable with, I am going to reconsider. There's a much better chance of getting caught with every extra second that goes by. There's really no arguement here.
But if you feel fine with your stock lug nuts, good for you. Let's hop no one steals anything from you.

Locking nuts are a waste of money... If someone wants your rims i promise you they will take them with or without that kit

A thief wouldn't buy a tool he would steal one. And you are right if they want them they will steal them. But i am going to do anything to make them work a little harder to get my s**t.
