Does not suprise me one bit. Whether it be for scrap aluminum or as-is, they are worth money...
While not fool proof, a set of wheel locks are a good investment as a deterrent in hopes that they would not want to deal with them and move along. Ford P/N: 3C3Z-1A043-AA

Sell 'em on Craig's List. Crimes like that are happening more & more. I'm always amazed when I hear the latest copper/bronze theft, stealing parts to sprinkling systems, breaking into buildings and stripping out the wiring..., it seems endless.
As I've mentioned before, when I moved outta the old neighborhood, a criteria was the new place must have sufficient garage space for my toys, I was tired of a'holes stealing stuff like the step rails off my PU, breaking into it, etc. I went so far as to weld the bolts holding the bumpers and step rails on the Dodge PU to try to prevent any more losses.
I wish the Castle Doctrine would extend to the limits of property, not just inside the home in this state.

I installed surveillence cameras and dvr 8 years ago outside my shop and building and so far have caught a few perps including arson on an adjoining property. They will steal anything including wooden pallets!

I would have loved to see how they pulled that operation off! Seriously, I would think you would need a moving truck to get all those wheels and tires out of there. That kind of energy would be better served in a legal job in the community.

I think that the wheels would fit pretty easily in an enclosed car hauler trailer or one of the larger sized (20 ft.) utility trailers.
Pull the trailer into the lot, have a generator and air compressor, pneumatic jack and impact wrench, could be in and out pretty quickly.
