meh. If they want it, they'll take it. I had a car stolen that didn't even have a head on the engine... And was boxed in by other cars, and covered. Someone knew what was there and actually moved 2 cars with a truck, and towed my Civic away. Almost complete B20 VTEC swap, WORK Equips, and some other goodies gone. Since it was a project car, no insurance. The wheels and swap were $6kish alone...

Dude, isn't it awesome when corporations are so blinded by money that they disregard people entirely?

No my uncle owns a shop and I mounted my own rims and tires.
My insurance company hasn't been the best to me.
They said this is going to raise the premium.
I wonder how much evo's go for... lol

Switch companies after your paid. The theft usually wont transfer it is generally only things on your license.

That's crap, you should fight it. What insurance do you have?

This happened to my brother's G37s coupe earlier this year, I think he got something like $3,000+ and they were NOT RAYS wheels. He had allstate fwiw.

High Point aka Plymoth Rock or something?

I really expected much more from them...

Insurance company wants me out raising my premium.
I think I am trading in the Z.
Took off my intakes already pending sale. lol
