Today while driving through the parking structure of my apartment complex I saw a Mercedes sitting on it's rotors with wheels missing. Apparently this happened last night. It's a bit disturbing to see stuff like this since this is a gated area with a security patrol on watch. It's a decent community (upper-middle class) in San Diego and not sketchy or anything.
Anyways, naturally I'm feeling a bit paranoid. I usually don't have sentry mode on since it drains a lot of battery. But from now on I definitely will turn it on every night. I'm just wondering if sentry mode will sound alarm i.e. play loud music if the wheels are being tampered with? I know it will record if someone is near and if a window is broken it will sound the alarm. But not sure what it will do if a thief attempts to steal my wheels?
Also, should I invest in some wheel locks? My aftermarket wheels are not too expensive or anything but it would hurt to see my car sitting on nothing but rotors or bricks. I feel really bad for the owner
