Hey Terrible I'm a female. LOL thats o.k.
I think I am the only one who likes the stock rims here. lol. The dealer told me that the rims have a sensor on them to tell you when the tires are low. So that adds on more money and then the center caps, that add more money. It's ridiclous.

get the money from insurance, order a set of aftermarket wheels. Also you can buy stock set for much cheaper then that on the forums. Sucks that it happened, but insurance covers it then such is life. I would be devastated it happened to me but not much you can do about it.

I'm assuming that all the G's come with the same wheel lock, the one i have says Nissan on the package, so anyone can buy the set at a dealership to get the socket and steal all the rims easily. Thats why it's better to have aftermarket locks. I guess it will be a good idea for you to put a few different locks on your rims. who knows, they might come again, and since ur G is outside, why take a chance.

no number of wheel locks will keep your wheels from being stolen..
look at your lugnuts and see if any of them are damaged
but yea, if you don't want aftermarket i'd do like someone else suggested and buy a set on ebay or on here and pocket the rest of the money. have at least a motioned sensored light put on the house pointing at your driveway. maybe even a camera if you want. you'll need to take your car back to the dealer to have the sensors in the wheels you buy synced with your car, but that shouldn't cost much

if i was her, i could care less about the exhaust..
why would you replace a rim because of a curb? couldnt you just get it fix for like 100 dollars? 
woman, sshhhhheeehhh. jking.
if you get aftermarket rims, they would just steal those also...get an aftermarket alarm.

if someone want to steal your rims, it does not matter how many different lug nuts. tell your dogs to bark, or teach them. what dog does not bark when there is a stranger?

good thing there are young ppl in my block that stay up, so if they notice something strange, they can call me, and my street is lit. so we can see everything
and if u have more locks, it will be harder for them to take the rims

I guess nothing is safe anymore these days. If someone wants something they will get it, but in the meantime I will make it alot harder for them or someone else if they come back and try again. That's for sure.
