At least they were nice enough to put bricks under your rotors to allow a jack to fit....

Damn man sorry to see that, I thought this was mostly in NY, this hits close to home now. I live in Miami, and was debating getting wheel locks. I'm gonna put my order in now, even if it doesn't stop theft at least I know they have one more step to take. By the way did you have wheel locks?

Thieves suck. I hate today this but wheel locks will slow a wheel thieve maybe a minute per wheel.

WOW this is crazy I am in Miami also.......To be honest with you I have wheel locks on mine and I was thinking about getting an alarm. But I decided against it. Mainly because if I catch somebody stealing my wheels they are going in the ground. So its best that if they want my rims they can just have them and for me to just find out about it in the morning.

Man if you can not find anything, let me know. I just bought my 08 G37 with stock 19" and I have a set of vossen that I'm going to install in the car, but not for now, I can try to help you out. how long are you going to need the wheels? and what are you planning to do?

This happened to me twice in one year back in '09 here in Boston. After the second time, one of the cops writing up the report told me I should just put some "regular" wheels on my car so they didn't keep stealing them. Thanks, but no thanks. I had an alarm with a tilt sensor installed and I eventually moved.

Alarm w/tilt and proximity sensors. I've seen it happen all too often down here in Miami. My neighbor had her Maxima rims stolen last month. Funny thing is I have a Maxima with the same rims(18inch alloys) but they didn't touch my car. But my maxima does have an alarm thats connected to a train horn( Invested alot of money into the car).
