Good Lukc


I agree with Vik.... look at this as a blessing in disguise..... your insurance will cut you a check for nearly $5,000 (each OEM wheel at $1,000 + 4 OEM Tires)... You'll be able to get aftermarket wheels/tires for nearly half that and pocket the rest or buy aftermarket parts!!!!

But still.... sorry to see this happened to you.

Sorry to hear about that man. With all the reports of theft on the forums, I'm not going to get aftermarket rims. Who knew the stock ones would get stolen too.

Wow that really sux. Same thing happened to me late last year. I have a thread on this forum titled "Who took my shoes?". They left mine on blocks as well. Hopefully you have decent insurance and they'll cover the replacements.

So really everyone that has this happened parks their car in the driveway every day? The garage is a good place to store your car if you dont have another car stored in there already. Im so sorry to see this... hope insurance takes care of it

I'll be keeping an eye out on craigslist and ebay just for the heck of it.

Really sucks - at least I have insurance, but with a $500 deductible.
What city do you live in?
