Yes, you can also do this ...


The Star Blog

but actually no need to tie to pillar. The chain is long enough so you can chain two tyres together. Nonetheless, a bolt cutter could cut through those chains. Thieves could take off the tyre (with or without tyre lug locks) and replace them with a spare tyre (perhaps from your own trunk?!).

P.S.
Scratches on the rim!

Found another way to chain your vehicle:



but still susceptible to be cut by bolt cutters, but advantage is:no need to find pillar to which to chain car.

Chris

P.S.
Get a better padlock though. The one shown looks flimsy.

For the first pic, if the thief just drives of witht he car, the chain or the lock is sure to break cos the rims and the pillar are stronger. That said, the effect of the chain being stretched and then suddenly snap may damage the car.

For the second pic, driving of wth the car will definately break the bumper and of the car continues to move, it may hit the undercarriage of the car.

Well, if you can't afford a garage, why not build a cage!
