McGard wheel locks have been acknowledged for years as being the best, and have been used by car mfrs, also. In my expereince with other wheel locks, they look more substantial than any that use a keyed lock.
 
Nonetheless, about everyone knows 2-3 ways of removing McGards.

I somewhat agree with this, except that the thief has to be more than halfway decent. 

Nevertheless, the fact that there an ongoing thread entitled "How to remove wheels without wheel lock" tells me that it is aparantly not that easy if you got the right locks on.

And even if you are right, then what about all the halfway INdecent thieves? I sure want to make it less attractive for them to strip my wheels.

So, does anyone have any knowledge about which is the most difficult and which is the easiest wheel locks to remove?
