Hell, if you want aftermarket wheels, but them. They just need to pay you for stock replacements

Trying to get Supersports...

maybe my adjuster would be ok if I cover the difference in cost if there is any

Tell then to cut you a check for the total amount for wheels, tires, and mounting

I guess this could actually happen.

My adjuster will send me a check minus deductible for the quote I got from the dealer. That means I can order tire I want! :happydance:

Your comprehensive doesn't cover it (so you don't have to pay the deductible)

And make sure they pay you appropriately. Sport wheels are something stupid like $600/wheel

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.

accchoi, good to hear you can get the tires you want.

DEpointfive0, In my policy, my comprehensive portion still has a deductible but it's 1/2 of my collision.

Yup. Ask the seller about the car it came from and if they cannot show or say, they're you suspects. Too bad hard to prove unless it was a unique set of wheels or have some serial # or markings.

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

Pffftt - details, details. :rofl2:

I didn't intend for my reply to be taken too seriously. Although it's plausible, I didn't expect him to follow through with the idea. :)

All I have to pay is my deductible and others are now being covered by insurance.

Total, after tax, it was little less than $5000 for wheel, tire, pressure monitor, lug nuts, centercaps

sucks but you can get better wheels and tires. don't let your insurance dictate anything to you.

Sorry to hear op. Hope you get replacements soon.

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