Even if the tire is on the grate, that lock would go way before any real stress was put on the car. However, if the grate did pop out and start getting dragged it could cause some serious damage while bouncing about.

Then the weight of the car would prevent the grate from being pulled out. Assuming the chain isn't long enough to let the car roll off the grate, and that the car itself lacks the power to break the chain and/or lock.

This car isn't even worth a full tank of gas. You know, seriously, if I was going to be stealing a car, this sure as hell wouldn’t be my top pick.
