Work wheels stolen in Los Angeles! FML - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

t0fudelivery · 09-10-2012, 10:16 AM

I was just in Hawaii for vacation with my family for about a week and came back home this past Saturday night. I woke up this morning at around 9AM, saw my 350Z on bricks...

The car was not broken into, but just my wheels were stolen. The wheels were Work Meister S1 3 piece in polished black with polished lips. The sizes were 18x8.5 and 18x9.5 with the offsets being mid to high +20s. Some of the "Work" logos on the face were lightly scratched away on some edges. All of the rivets had some browning around them due to daily wear and tear. I am located in the San Fernando Valley just outside of Northridge so if you have any information or spot these wheels in person and/or for sale, it would be greatly appreciated if it were forwarded to me.

Added information, we had Rays Engineering lug nuts on them (not the $400 formula type) and either the car had been scouted prior or they were just THAT good and took them off within minutes.

Finally, I would like to say that I have no respect whatsoever for people like this. These people belong in the same category as those who throw eggs, take keys to paint, or even write a message in the middle of a dusty hood. They were lucky they didnt get caught in the middle of the night, because both me and my father would not have hesitated to reach for one of our firearms. For all you current and/or future custom wheel owners, lock nuts for your wheels do not guarantee security.

If you recover them or get something of comparable price get them insured in the future. I have noticed something like wheels are very hard to prove they are yours even if they are recovered. Hope you get them back.

WOW, so sorry to hear and see that :/

Eramo323 · 09-10-2012, 07:09 PM

no alarm tho ? sorry to hear about you're wheels

zerodameaon · 09-12-2012, 02:54 AM

Most alarms will not pickup something like jacking and rim theft if they don't have the leveler sensor.
