Wheel locks recommended for driving though Europe?

My CA's manager mentioned it was a good idea if I was driving into Paris and that they can be installed in Munich when I take delivery. However, I messaged BMWEuropeanDelivery and they said that my CA would have to order them for me. Anyone have expereience with this?

You do not need wheel lock in Europe, your car is 100% insured. Even if you scratch the rim it will be replace when it get to the port. Not many people steal BMW wheels in Europe as BMW and MBenz are very common. I done 4 ED and been to everywhere in Europe include Prague, it is not a big deal.

Don't even bother with it and enjoy your vacation!
