Spare Tire Lock

[spiderman865]

Anyone use a spare tire lock? Wondering if a Pop & Lock spare tire shield for a 2017 will fit a 4th gen.

I have this from my old hitch mounted spare tire carrier for another rig. I'm going to see if I can put it to use for our spare.

These guys sell one, but price is crazy!

Doesn't just locking the doors work?
Spare tires get stolen?

Had one stolen years ago from my ‘04 at long term airport parking lot. Since the, have always used a lock like one mentioned in OP.

Isn’t it hard to steal one on modern ones ?

What they did was just cut the cable at the point where the piece that goes through the center of the rim is and adios to your spare.

apparently its a thing ... who'd a thunk?
if some scumbag is hell bent on robbing you, they will

you had one stolen so the likelyhood of a second is slim
(actually it makes no difference statistically)
