well in my case the tires are on the wheels and the etching is inside the tire...so the person buying the wheels/tires won't see the etching. I'm hoping that when the tires wear down and they get new ones they will go to the local Sears or Goodyear place and HOPEFULLY the guy doing the work will see it.
No, I mean the video does show a white panel van and a dark colored (it was night and on the IR camera) sedan go buy just before and just after they took the wheels. Not a single car drove past other than those two in a 5 hour window that we watched. anyway, the video shows the guys but like I told the cop, it's not like they are wearing name tags so yeah, it shows them, but until they get caught for something else it's not really helping us.
