They might be in the car but when a theif sees 5 wheel locks, they will think twice about the whole thing. I had 5 different locks on every lug and let me tell you, it is a pain to take even 1 wheel off.

even if they paint them they would be stupid to post them cuz it's way to much of a coinsodence that the same style we would be posted out of no where... will do keep a look out though.... Freakin haters i swear, a guy works and get his hard earned money to fix up his car cuz that's what he likes, and some hater can't work to get there own... makes me madd trust me...

im sure these thieves are professionals...im thinking they will probably try to unload them randomly on the street before they post them online anywhere.

I bet these idiots hit at least a few cars every night.

Stuff like this makes me wish we still lived in the Old West times. Someone stole your horse, they get hanged.
SOmeone steals anything, the owner had all rights to blow them away. Thieves **** me off.

The other part that sucks is that when thiefs actually get caught all they get is a slap on the wrist.

Yea mon I hear you.... But it still sucks what happen. Sometimes its even people within those gated communities that plot on other peoples stuff. That's probably how the theives get in there son easy at times also. Friend of a friend for example.
