Uh, you do realize that if someone went through the trouble of busting the wheel locks off, they probably stole the tires. Since that was the reason for busting the wheel locks in the first place.

Therefore, you have to add the cost of the stolen tires to the cost of replacing the wheel locks and the probable damage that was done to the wheels and the possible damage that was done to everything connected to the wheels as well.
