Sorry for your loss OP, but be happy as all hell!!!
You can buy almost ANY set of wheels now that insurance will pay out. Get yourself some nice light TE37SLs with Michelin PSS's!!!

Just came back from the dealership, at first the tow truck guy arrived with a different type of replacements to the scene. He had to go back to the dealership to get the wheels mounted off the only showroom nismo.

$4000 theft doesn't really warrant a fingerprint expert to come in. My house was burglarized and they took $100k worth of stuff, INCLUDING guns, (one being a Desert Eagle) and there were GORGEOUS prints on the buttstock of a shotgun... They wouldn't take prints off the wood because the burglary wasn't big enough.
And you'd be REALLY surprised... The amount of stuff they can take fingerprints from is about 0... Woman spent... 8 hours in my home... Got 4 prints... Only 2 were full...
Oh, I forgot, there was blood on the window that they entered... Didn't give half a shite.

Supposedly they don't even have the key for their bolt patterns.
Pretty expensive... |
If you use the Gorilla locks, your wheels/studs will break or come loose. Return them. You CANNOT USE ANYTHING BUT OEM ON OEM WHEELS. Do NOT put yourself in danger for something stupid like wheels locks.
Lastly, they don't need a key. 3 ways of beating the system:
1) they use a universal socket (has little pins that let it attach to any shape, I'll google one in a bit
2) they put a bigger socket on your lugs, beat it on tight and twist off
And if all else fails...
3) They come back the next day with a flatbed and jack the whole car.
