this is what i am trying to tell you, the Leon Hardiritt is new, clean, different, and you will probably not see another set of them in the states for a very long time. They are a dish type wheel which is like 1 of 4 types of wheels made which is how you get the aggressive deep dish appearance. If you visited an international local magazine store you would find these types of rims, but your local store may not. if i were in your situation i would seriously consider these wheels, but i am not so i can only think of the future.

good luck and happy hunting.

Wow! Do you think this is a freak one time thing or are they waiting for this opportunity for a while already?

I'm only 3 miles south of Downtown. Usually pretty quiet neighborhood. I had a webcam I was going to install too, guess its too late now. Funny, the thief unscrewed my outside security lights and attempted to stack a bunch of stuff up to reach for a much higher one but couldn't get to it. I walked out of my house and saw this pyramid of stuff, thought the paperboy was playing a trick on me

Man that sucks. My LS 430 and Mercedes S 430 live in a closed garage and are locked even inside. That might stop an opportunistic thief. My SIG P250 and a very victim-friendly "hearth and home" law that gives me permission to shoot home invaders should take care of the determined ones. My home alarm goes BANG, BANG, BANG. BANG. BANG. BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG....<CLICK>....BANG, BANG.....
