THIEVES got my Rims!!!

I went out to go to work this morning and the Evo was on blocks, the mother f'ers stole the rims and tires off my car!! I cant believe this crap. I call the police they showed up in record time actually, and they said there has been a rash of thefts in the area. A guy a couple of streets over had his chrome 22's stolen from right in front of his house. I guess its better getting the rims stolen then having the whole car taken.

Thats the best thing of all. I moved out of Philly to the suburbs because of the crime. I now live in Media Pa. which is alot safer, or so I thought.

Dude, that sux a big one. Do you have theft insurance for that? Brand new wheels and Advans will make you feel better. Like you said, atleast it wasn't the whole car!

I hope everything goes well with everything. Very sorry, it just hurts to see an evo sitting on blocks like that. I remembered when my friends stole my rims on April fools and didn’t find out it was them till the next morning. I was sick to the stomach just seeing my 240 on bricks. But anyways did you have any kind of wheel lock on the fno1r's?
By the way I suggest getting an alarm system that has a feature that can detect when the car is being lifted at an angle to anyone that has nice wheels even if you have wheel locks. You wouldn’t believe what I found in a toolbox of a wheel/tire shop. Oh yea make sure that wherever they jacked the car up from isn’t damaged I doubt they used the proper jack points when stealing your wheels.

Hate to hear it bro, but like you said at least they only took the rims and tires. I would find that a lot easier to deal the have the car vandalized or something worse. Hope things go well for you.
