Damn sorry to see that happen to another member. You kinda got lucky though, because from the looks of your driveway, your car couldve easily fallen off the bricks and damaged the hell out of the bottom of your car.

my benz has a sensor under the car. Once you lock the car and if the car is raised from any side the alarm just turns on. I think it detects if there is any weight put on the wheels but still my benz is an 04 and couldnt Infiniti think of this for an 08?

Really sucks, but as people have mentioned before stock 19's are like 700+ from the dealer (I believe), plus new tires through the dealer and you're looking at at about $4k i'm guessing.
Just trying to see the bright side of it, it's happened to me when I had my GSX and I ended up making out like a bandit

Atleast the thieves put the bricks on the right place. Factory lug nuts are useless, you can buy a lug nut kit from sears or tool van. These kit have all standard configuration to take on any typical lock. I bought some splinedrives and never worry about my rims.
OEM wheels will cost you easy $500-$700 a piece plus tires and sensors. Premium on your insurance shouldn't go higher since it's under comprehensive.
