Wheel Security?

So unfortantly I don't live in the best of places and 2 of my buddies have had after market wheels stolen from them (enkei, and some other nice ones) and im about to put 20" rims on my truck. Yea I know there 8 lug and more than likely useless to whoever would want to steal them but 99% of petty criminals are stupid and probally wont notice until in the middle of it all. So im wondering if you guys know of any good way to secure the wheels on the truck like especialty nuts or something. btw the wheels are KMC Revolvers just incase its relavent.

EDIT: Lock-tite and JB-Weld on the screws etc... in theory would work, but im gonna stay clear of that

All I can think of is use 2 or even 3 different locking lug nuts, I mean try to find 3 different styles and dont keep the keys in your glove box.
