The best wheel lock system we offer is the Lock'em Magnum Wheel Lock, part # RA-25. This system will work on 12 to 17 inch wheels. One side works on 12-15 inch wheels and the other side works on 15-17 inch wheels. The arms measure 1 inch X 7/8 inch at the narrowest point and would be extremely difficult to cut off with a bolt cutter.

For added security, you may want to check out part # FA86-0015-316. This is a coupler lock that will work on 1-7/8 inch , 2 inch, and 2-5/16 inch couplers. This attaches in the ball mount opening and uses a 5/8 inch diameter hardened shackle, which would tough to remove. It can also be ordered as "keyed alike". I have attached a product review video you can check out.
