zeexu · 08-14-2012, 08:43 AM

This happened last night.....talk about shitty luck, Just got the Z with Sports package a week ago and I left for a party at 12 came back at three to find all four wheels gone -.- this is in new york college point area. My friends g37 also got the wheels stolen two weeks ago. Ny has such a high stealing rate

anyways just watch your cars if your gonna park outside and go somewhere!

Happened to me off me 350 a few years ago. However, stock tires and wheels cost $4k and I only paid $2,500 for the set. I made out like a bandit....

sucks. really close to home too.

No wheel locks? I mean, I guess even with, it wouldn't matter much, but every little bit helps.

Sorry to hear man.

kenchan · 08-14-2012, 10:30 AM

sorry to hear. get tilt sensor aftermarket alarm if you are going to be parking outdoors often.

Awful. String 'em up

robones · 08-14-2012, 10:43 AM

Sorry to hear that man!! ;(

But hey, I like your pin stripes though

B&W_Evader · 08-14-2012, 10:46 AM

How common is this? and... What other cars do the Z wheels fit on?

Are there low-lifes with older 350s taking them or is it our fellow 370Z owners?

Also, how about mix and match wheel locks. 5 different brands so they can't just go to the dealer and get a set with the right key?

shadoquad · 08-14-2012, 10:51 AM

This is common. These are very attractive stock wheels, so they'll find a home on the black market pretty quickly.

w0rM · 08-14-2012, 10:54 AM

I hope they catch them and stab them in the eyes.

kenchan · 08-14-2012, 10:55 AM

yep, factory wheels are expensive too if you buy new.

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.
