I would also keep an eye out for anyone selling G35 coupe or sedan wheels and even 350Z. Chances are someone liked the new 37 wheels and know they will fit their sedan or something like that.

Not like a skeleton key per se...but more like a "kit"
I went to the dealership, spoke to the service guys regarding my broken wheel lock. One of the mechanics asked me where my car was park and all he said was not to worry as they have a kit for the nissan locks.
It took the mechanic less than three minutes to remove my lock (lock came out in one piece)

same thing was said to my friend on his RSX.

on my maxima i had aftermarket (which i bought at pepboys) wheel locks and lost the key. i went to every store (autozone, pepboys, murrys, advanced, etc) to find the identical set so i could use the key, but i couldnt find them anywhere. i had to take it to a tire shop and they had to use an air chisel to get the locks off. i think that you would be much better off going to an advanced auto type place to get wheel locks than the dealer.

Agreed, PMS / members, def get a high end wheel lock. If someone has access to a universal dealer key, then we might as well not even put our OEM wheel locks on.
PMS, might explain why your car was not scratch, dogs did not bark and it happend right in front of your house ...that, or maybe the thieves are really that good

PMS, your new wheels are on i'll see you in a bit to say hi! i just got an upgraded camera for my house/driveway so I can watch it all day and night, installed extra motion sensor lights, which do help a bit. i've had someone eyeing my gf's G37 the other day we parked on the street.... it's hard now to enjoy what you have sometimes
