I am in Arlington, VA and my rims are stock 40th Anniversary rims. Just check craiglist and nothing is found. I will definitely ask the apartment management to pay for my loss.

Since the thief only put 1 stack cinder blocks on each side of the car right under the door so the front passenger side brake disc was on the ground as well, will there be any frame damage to my car?

Don't know about damage. Not surprised the wheels were stolen though. The Rays wheels have been a popular target for thieves. I'm sorry you're going through this. It sucks.

Sorry to hear. Your frame will be fine. Your brakes or hub will probably be but I'd still have the rotor put on a lathe to make sure.

Been there more than once. Why I moved from NOVA. The last time, I caught them in the process. After they were arrested, nothing happened to them. They will continue to watch and wait for you to get new ones. Figure out what you are going to do.

Did they steal anything from inside the car? Did you have wheel locks? I know wheel locks won't stop them but I'm just wondering how fast they could have done this.

I am really sorry for what happened to your 40th. Now file a comprehensive claim and get a set of Nismo rim.

Ugh man, I feel your pain. That's hard to look at, not to mention they also broke into the car. Hopefully insurance will take care of it and take care of the damage and a new set of wheels.
