i think TL and Maxima (some Altima) folks are also getting just the rears or fronts non-staggered. might want to check craig's list for local sale. you might find your set.

OMG-can you imagine-surfing the web and seeing YOUR stuff for sale!

Nice man! U got some good police there. I'd be extra pissed off.

MattP725 · 08-14-2012, 10:00 AM

Wait... they found just 1 of the wheels? Was the guy walking down the street with it?

Nice to hear! It would be funny if you could be like "hell yeah I know that guy! He's the same guy that robbed me at gun point two weeks ago! And I think he's the same guy that tried to sell my son drugs too!" Nail him for a whole bunch of other shyte, just to teach him a lesson.

I hope they deport that motha fletcher!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Be super mean looking when you get there... slam your fists on all the desks you see at the station.

It takes a special kind of genius to commit a theft without gloves. It is sheer brilliance. Maybe he forgot he had a record.

Bastards!!

Sorry to see this

It's been a while since this has happened to a member in here since there was a rash of folks getting their wheels stolen some time back.

Personally I would get the ins check and look into aftermarket wheels with locks of course

I would also make sure the ins knows so if they get ripped off they get replaced.

It's kind of awesome that they caught the guy.

enkei2k · 08-14-2012, 10:22 AM

Lucky you man, I had my Volks stolen from me 4 years ago and they (police) didn't give a crap about my rims since they stole the whole car from me and stripped it down (gone were the rims, seats, stereo). They said, "as long as you got the car back (pretty much just a shell), that's all that matters."

I really doubt you'll know the guy, but it's really awesome hearing you getting one step closer to getting them back.

Keep us updated!

Sorry man, I hope you get the rest of you wheels back. I just purchased a viper alarm system with a tilt sensor because of pictures like these I've seen on the forums.

anthonyy · 08-14-2012, 10:45 AM

sorry to hear that. Glad you took the right steps and contacted the police first.

Haboob · 08-14-2012, 10:46 AM

Wow, your police are awesome.

When mine got stolen back in '02 from my car at that time, I asked them to take finger prints and they said, "No. It won't help, we won't catch them anyways." verbatim.

Come to find out I saw them on someone's car a week later and it was a kid I went to HS with. Too bad I couldn't prove 100% that they were mine, but word around was that they were.
