I have one of these:

On my trailer with 8" wheels. It is 'Sold Secure' provided you have locking wheelnuts. It seems pretty solid, so it will probably take a thief about the same time to remove it as it does me with the key

Cheers

I think it is probably as good as any of the other wheel clamps out there - the best you can ever hope is to deter the opportunist thief.
