Stolen Wheels!!!!! ANGRY

Jeffblue · 05-27-2010, 01:50 PM

So this morning I go to leave for work and i see this:

It happened between 2 and 7 AM last night (May 27 2010). They used bricks from a house down the road that was under construction and stole my back 2 rays 19 inch sport wheels. They also tried to steal the wheels of an escalade around the block, but they didn't stack enough bricks and the car moved once one wheel was off, so they just left with that.

So i called the police right away, filed claim with insurance, my car is about to be flat bedded to the shop and tomorrow i am getting brand new take offs from another 2010z to replace them, i just have to pay the 500 dollar deductible, insurance is covering everything else.

Either way, some piece of Sh1t stole my wheels. Clearly this was some kind of special order, or they would have taken the whole set.

If any of you see for sale (craigslist/ebay) a set of 2 19" rear wheels from a 370z in the Long island/New york/New Jersey/metro area please let me know as i would like to catch these bastards.

MY CAR STILL HAS A TEMPORARY REGISTRATION/900 miles on the odometer FOR CHRIST SAKE

Locking lugs just delays the stealing process. Get a shock sensor alarm and no one could steal rims without setting it off.

That's a good deterrent - but you really should get an aftermarket alarm if you are going to leave her outside... locking lugs are a 10 second inconvenience for a thief who is determined to have your wheels...

**** suckers!

A CCTV cam setup is probably the way to go in this case along with motion lights.

A standard socket won't even fit in my wheels and they are all locking.

OMG!!!

antman22 · 05-27-2010, 01:54 PM

man, that really sux...def ge the locking lugs, they aren't 100% effective, but its enough to deter 95% of the a-holes out there that can't pay for their own crap.

sorry to hear the bad news, hopefully they get caught trying to sell them off.

edit- noticed i wrote "are 100% effective"...supposed to be "aren't"

theDreamer · 05-27-2010, 01:56 PM

Wow, sucks to hear, hope they catch the a-holes who did this.

KptKIDLAT · 05-27-2010, 01:57 PM

Aahh shoot, sorry about your lost man. I wonder why you have not in the garage. Mine is garage all the time, but now I'm gonna get that wheel lock for sure.

Sorry to hear and SEE those photos. Second thread like this, I believe. (Not this particular car but second time it's happened to someone on here)

Nick911sc · 05-27-2010, 02:00 PM

You aren't the first person to have this happen to in NY. Gah this is rediculous, I feel sorry for you man.

Jeffblue · 05-27-2010, 02:02 PM

yea i bought this car 3 weeks ago after finishing school, and i'm moving back home (i've been here 3 days) and i hadn't had time to clean out the garage to put the car in yet, nor get the wheel locks. This weekend i was planning on cleaning out hte garage and getting the car in there and pickup wheel locks.

Im gonna keep that in the garage, get locking lucks, and get an alarm.... and maybe some land mines and a pet tiger
