Why is dropping it on the ground better? The whole front of the car is on the floor. I had a Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 that was left on garden blocks. Sucks, but preferred that than the damage I would've had it they just dropped it.

Wowwww. I wonder what wheels were on there. New wheels=lug locks. Although, I heard they can even get around those as well.

I park my Z in a similar situation and its a terrifying couple seconds every morning when I get outside before I see the Z, im always scared for it to be keyed, dinged, scratched, or stolen. This is my ultimate fear. But, I pay my insurance premiums and we all run this risk if we live somewhere without a garage. But come May, I'll be back in a house with a garage.

They kind of help. Most thieves will just move on to another car if they see a wheel lock. Its kind of like having a steering wheel lock. Those don't do much and can be bypassed easily but most thieves will move on to another car cause when you are stealing something. Time isn't on your side lol.

Discount for trade for bike tires? Also I think he might have your breaker bar and socket. Lol.

The whole thing is horrible jokes aside. I don't want to live on this planet sometimes.

wheel locks won't work. i've seen them hammer on a socket over the lock, ruining the socket but it does allow them to remove the lock

Anyone want some low mileage Nismo wheels?

Nismo rules:

1. Have a garage home and work.
2. Lock nuts
3. Alarm

Don't know where they are going to sell the wheels they are kinda rare.

Back to the stock Nismo wheels...
