Well...all he'd have to do is get the wheels and the car within range of the TPMS. If they connect, then that's one way to prove the wheels came from his car.

Yeah, but I DOUBT he's just going to wait for a set of wheels to come on sale and bring them close enough his car

I've been checking since Sunday morning. No show.

Spoke with guys at dealership and wheel stores.. they basically told me thieves will most likely ship those to LA to sell it. sigh

Minato is an unknown quantity at this point

Sorry about that. Does your apartment have any security patrols or cameras? I would raise some concern with your landlord about this. It is a ****** up country we live in that things like this happen. Why can't everyone be as nice as Canadians?

And spend some out of pocket money for wheel locks. They won't totally stop a thief but I'll bet they wouldn't have tried it in your driveway.

Sorry to hear op. Hope you get replacements soon.

I'm surprised to hear your insurance won't cut you a check.

They are cutting me a check. Just whatever that I submit to them, but they want me to get OEMs.

I happen to like sports rays that came with the car, I want OEMs back on it. just different tire, which my adjuster is willing to change out for me.

So, I guess I'm good, just my car is sitting duck until wheels come in, which is probably early next week.
