Where might I acquire some of these "wheel lucks"?

 

Wow that is just horrible. They did you bad on that one. Best of luck with the wheel lucks

 

^^^comment hilarious

thread, not hilarious, sorry for your loss

 

that sucks but wheel locks dont always stop them either. Had them on my old truck and they still got my wheels and everything electronic that was inside.

 

That really, really sucks bro.


I still do not understand why people put expensive/nice things on cars that don't sleep in garages. Things like this are bound to happen.

 

I think we were all so excited that there was another SP thread that we 1. Overlooked the issue & 2. over looked the obvious.

Good catch on your part.

 

Better than nothing.

Man, I'd be so pissed!!!

 

Ey mon!

Bout' some Dreadlucks?!?

 

I'm looking for another alarm or add/on that will text my phone. What do you got?

 

Thank you guys all for sharing my pain on this I know it sucks for a 1st post but I did not want anyone else to have this problem if you are not aware of the danger out there with your wheels (I was not lol). we all spend so much time and money on visual & performance upgrades & modifications and sometimes we all skip the most important things. It does not do any good even if you have the best car unless you know how to protect it.

I USED TO have Volk TE37 Wheels (Seibon Edition). You know what really sucks, I waited to get them for a year and they were gone after less than a month. I had insurance but they were only able to put factory rims, talked to dealer to see if I can purchase my old rims and put them on, did not work. So I am stuck with factory rims again after spending all that money on rims and I am trying to make myself happy with NISMO decals on factory rims

I called my insurance and they said I will have to call 911 and have a report# or something from an officer. They sent a 300 pounds dude with a donut and coffee early in the morning. Guy said THIS IS VERY COMMON FOR 350Z'S AND STARTED LAUGHING (???). God knows how hard it was not to punch him in the face. I was like if it is something common on Z's do something about it instead of eating your donut lol.

Hardest part: bringing the car to the dealer with no tires

Good part: I now have brand new shiny factory rims and tires, if you consider this as a good thing

So I am not a wheel lock dealer or something but make sure you get a set

 

I had Volk TE37 Wheels but you know what dude, it does not matter what you have. Even the factory rims and tires were about 5K, this is what dealer charged my insurance company + labor, tire pressure sensors etc 7K total, I dont know if they ripped them off but they are expensive lol

 

I live in Fort Lauderdale, FL. Very safe (?) and gated (?) community. Believe me, if it happened in where I live at, it may happen everywhere else.

 

Thanks man! I already started rolling with my old a$$ factory rims lol

 

Thanks brother! Sorry for the typo on the posting by the way, I obviously meant locks

 

I agree, if they wanna take it, they take it no matter what...

 

Yeah I figured lucks are not working as good as locks lol

 

I was actually in Plantation that time, by Broward Mall but if happens there in a gated community, why not Boca right?

 

Thanks brother! Yeah I got on alarm system and will let anyone touch my car anymore, I mean hopefully

 

Dealer installed a set for me but you can check on eBay. Here is a link:

100% agree bro. It is stupid to spend that kind of money and let the car sit by itself with no locks no alarm whatsoever. now I know...
