370z sport wheels stolen!!! Help!

Why didn't you go with aftermarket wheels, I think you can get 4 Volks TE37 for like 3k. A lot cheaper than oem wheels. Did your inusrance company require you

holy shitt, this is the first i seen of this thread i want to say sorry for the bad luck, i had some stuff stolen from me once, nothing worst than walking out to your vehicle and seeing that someone messed with. i sure hope they catch the jack offs that are stealing peoples hard earned belongings.

Man I feel for you. Just keep it up and hopefully you will get them. I HATE it when my stuff gets stolen. At least they didn't get you this time.

I feel for whoever tries to grab anything from my house.

Go with this and add the optional M-203 grenade launcher. Bullets are for sissies.

Sorry about the theft bro. If they get them again, buy the Nismo Rays as replacements...

Man that sucks. I keep some bird shot loaded in the shotgun but I live out in Hawaii and they have some ridiculous laws about personal protection. They let one guy go to a mental institution after he broke in, killed the wife/daughter and stabbed the husband.

So after reading this whole thread it looks like the only good deterrant is the lojack system? I like the multiple wheel lock idea but do you guys think it will actually hold up? Thank god for living in a gated community but my inlaws live in queens with no garage...

I don't think a lojack will be a deterrant or prevent anyone from stealing a set of wheels. To me a good set of wheels locks, good alarm and a garage is your best bet.

There are also regular wheels lug nuts that comes with a different pattern, it will act like wheels locks.
