Man that sucks. Sorry to hear about your bro's wheels. Is there a vehicle log book or video surveillance at the guard shack? I hate thieves....wouldn't you have liked to walk up on them as they were jacking his wheels?? A** whipping time!

same here, I see wheels going around usually from shop's all the time.. but if I happen to come across these anywhere I will let you know for sure, thats scary how they cut up the key spot behind the handle... 
not cool at all!

thats a useless gated neighborhood...plus these thieves probably already know how to get into these neighborhoods without passing the the guard.
since all these cars are slim jim proof...the next thing is a drill and metal shears.
those wheels only fit on lexus/toyota cars...the hub bore is perfect for them and they use the smallest hub out of all the 5x114 wheels.

thats how they opened the door...the cut it open to get to the lock and it also rolled all the windows down.
The car had five gorillas per wheel...but too bad they found the key inside the car. that explains the gaping hole.
these thieves in s. fl have been stealing wheels and cars for years. they just do it in front of houses now. back in the honda days they just took the whole car...it was easier.
I was waking up to my clifford going off on my accord at least once a month back when we lived down on flagler and 57ave. thought moving to miramar would have solved that...it didnt.
