Welcome to Miami. It only took 20 minutes for this '15 4GS and 3IS to have their wheels stolen. Wishing many hours of hellacious diarrhea on scums like this.

In typical broadcasting fashion, the 3IS was referred to as an IS-F though lol.

I am one of the lucky people that got to catch people outside and completely lose their minds lol. I hope someone takes a 3/4in torque wrench to these guys.

Really saddening. I have seen this happen often from my college days in Sacramento living along the river, at least there they would be courteous enough to put the car on milk crates.
They never got me fortunately, I put a perimeter (alarm system component) on my Camry-refused to let them steal my Enkei Enzos and my $2500+ stereo system. The thieves will get what is coming to them, the streets sometimes issue their own justice.

are these guys not putting wheel locks on or are the thieves that good??

I can't imagine wheel locks stop these guys.

The year I was born, my dad's car went through the same. Was left on bricks
Years later, I learned to drive on that car

wheel locks might slow them down by a minute or two, but won't stop them.

pman6

why put them on those small bricks? That's about the same as dropping the whole car on the ground

how can they defeat the wheel locks? drill?

The most common way is to use an oversized torx socket, but I also heard that they have a master key that pretty much work on all Toyota / Lexus cars.

it's inevitable that this was soon to be happening...

I have these when I use stock wheels...not standard Lexus/Toyota locks, so a little bit more of a deterrent if they do have a master key




They are very inexpensive, too

if you have aftermarket wheels, they usually have acorn seat for the lugs as opposed to the OEM setup...I use this model my aftermarket wheels
