thats over kill if you ask me. get a good alarm with starter kill and you can even hook up a secret switch to fuel pump or ignition to cut signal. hide it in the trunk or something. its not hard to do and i have seen write ups somewhere before for the fuelpump switch.

While every little bit helps, this wouldn't make anything imposible. A gas powered cut off saw and two minutes later the car is gone. I can think of two other ways around this just off the top of my head, and one of those is silent. "Untimate" Anti theft item? No.
Ultimate anti theft item? Unfortunately, still no.
Not to mention the potential for scratching your rims.

While that is smart to have, that is like you said a recovery tool, not an anti theft.... it may be a deterrent but I would say it is not as strong of a deterrent as an alarm...
That is like saying, if you are worried about becoming obese just buy insurance so you can afford lap band when the time comes, instead of preventing the obesity by being healthy...
far analogy i know, but kinda works lol
if my baby gets stolen I dont think i will want her back, a stolen car is never the same....

I have a club for my steering wheel. I know that someone who really wants it will cut through the wheel but I like to tell myself it deters some of the amateurs. Also it adds peace of mind. I wouldn't get the tire lock that you're talking about though because that might grab attention. A thief might think you have something in your car worth locking up.

I wish I could find the thread, but I think someone said it is possible to weld them down to the rails or something. Has anyone done this? If so is it possible to still slide the seats forward and backward?

I've got one of these...
by no means do i think it'll stop it being stolen, but it is a visual deterrent to stop your not too bright joy-rider thinking he'll have a go at stealing it.
Just tucks behind the driver's seat in a nifty bag.
you can see some more infomation here...

as previously mentioned tho, if someone wants it that bad, they'll have it regardless of how much you spend on security.

problem is when car's are rare and hard to find.
I don't think i'd find another like mine as mint for the payout the insurers would offer. Remember they go by the book, not what it would cost to replace.
I've got an alarm/immob/tracker/kill switch... but i like to think that the s'wheel locki would stop the not-so-bright joy rider smashing my window and tearing up my ignition barrel to give it a try.
