Man that sucks, I hope your insurance company takes care of you. I hope who ever steals it crashes and dies a horrible death.

I know you pain, I have had multiple motorcycles stolen.

I hate thieves!

Even if you buy wheel locks you are not 100% safe....

I work as a parts advisor at a Volvo dealership, and I ordered a master wheel lock key set through McGard. I purchased them for the shop. People who lose their wheel lock key, or forgot it at home, or whatever. Either way it's handy for shop use, and we have to service their car. Anyways, when I ordered the kit, it came as a two container kit with about 20 lock keys per kit. Cost was $200.00 and low and behold....one of the keys fit my Evo lock lug. The best part of it was the woman at the order desk never questioned who it was for. All she asked for was an adress and the bill came in the mail 2 days after the kit came in. $200 is not a lot to spend when considering the street value of rims and tires. So long story short, no one is truely safe.

It's very depressing when someone takes your hard earned personal belongings.

EvoM isn't SVT boards man.....that really sucks ***. That's terrible. Those stock BBS wheels are very nice, since u've lost them why don't u look into aftermarket wheels? PS: The stock wheels don't come with wheel locks? I put wheel locks on every pair of wheels i had stock or aftermarket.

Sorry to hear....its never a great site to see any $30k+ car on blocks. Definitely invest in wheel locks and security.

That sucks. Tell your apartment complex to ease up. If they had a neighborhood watch or some type of security patrol it probably wouldn't have happened. They just don't want potential residents to see what goes on in their neighborhood.

I used to worry about sh*t like that all the time during my apartment days. I ended up moving into a complex that had garages but, I still didn't feel totally comfortable with that since the door into the one next to mine was kicked in and then the garage provided them cover to do whatever they wanted.
