That stupid piece of s*** need to go out and get a job and buy his own wheels
He has a job. It just isn't one any of us here necessarily approve of.

At least in a certain sense these thieves have somewhat of a code and are stealing something that is insured (unfortunately these insured things have deductibles and rate-raises).

Reminds me of a good book:
You Can't Win (book) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

BTW, very sorry about your cars. The civic I had for 10 years before my G got broken into 5 times in the wonderful city of Crochfester.

I just had a nightmare, I woke up and found my car not even on bricks only to find my whole aero kit cracked and exhaust smashed from then just taking the wheels. Glad I was dreaming felt so real and horrible.

You should keep an eye on Craigslist to see if the thief is trying to sell them there. I just did a quick search and saw this:
INFINITI G37 G35 350Z 370Z19" 2008 2009 2010 2011 FACTORY OEM RIMS

I live near Boston and can't even imagine how pissed I'd be if I were you. Good luck with everything.

It'd be an awesome way to crack down the the @sshole that did this. Curb rashes can be a great way to identify your wheels...

Hmmm...I don't live in Boston, but I'd be damn curious to see if this was the guilty culprit. If I had my wheels stolen in Boston and this ad was out, I would contact the seller pretending I'm interested and investigate to see if they are my wheels.

Listen I'm not saying anyone should play detective and do anything dangerous, but a local posting that is selling the same wheels days after a theft...I'd raise eyebrows. I'd visit this guy armed...that's just me. I'm licensed here in FL..so..Ugh this is frustrating me and it's not even my wheels that were stolen.

^^^^ Lets not make it easier for any aspiring wheel thieves out there now, but yeah I agree wheel locks or not it seems like if they want our rims bad enough they will find a way.

I've said it before and i will say it again. Dont buy a $50k car and leave it outside. If you are going to ride a luxury sports coupe, invest in a garage and leave it there at night. Even if you are renting, dont be cheap, get an apt that has a garage even if its an extra monthly cost. If you can't afford to not get an apt. with that don't buy that type of vehicle, you are asking for this to happen to you otherwise. My g37 stays in a garage locked up with alarm on my car and a alarm that is connected to my house. You can never be too cautious, especially the way things are right now with the economy. People are desperate and will steal anything.

Sometimes you just have to leave your car outside. Sigh.
