Angry Thieves suck! 4 Rims/Tires stolen in my driveway.



Yep - right in my driveway. I had a set of wheel locks, but obviously you can see how well they work.

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.

That hurts just to look at!

Sorry to hear that it happened - isn't it amazing how popular our stock rims are?

man, wasn't there another member on here that got his wheels jacked recently?? i think it's time to invest in some aftermarket lug nuts

at least they had the courtesy to put ur cars on bricks...when i was on the rsx forum a few years ago, some guy got his wheels jacked and somehow left it sitting on it's chassis...

Good Lukc
