That sucks, there's a way for the crooks to just drill out the special lugnuts. Well, glad his insurance took care of him.

Holy crap Jay. I hope wheel theft of our lug patterns and size remain uncommon. It does not fit on a Honda for chrissake!

I'll try to help by re-posting them on as many forums later as I can since being on monitoring and participating in various car forums is part of my job. Thieves FTL

Damn i dont understand how they left your body on the ground and not on bricks!!! Dude Karma's a btchh.. Hope you get everything fix. Yeah seriously, it doesnt matter if you have just one lock on your wheels. You have to have all of them with different locks to be safer. But whose going to carry all those locks. Sucks we cant feel safe anywhere now
