first by a decent alarm, then the money left over decides what you can get! Plus call the insurance company...send them an invoice from the STEALERSHIP , then have them make you an offer. Also pull the OEM wheels sales from EBAy to get a decent fair market value.

Everything in life is negotiable IMO, if you try hard enough. If you fight, you win, if you dont fight, you get your buttocks knocked off.

 

did you use wheel locks? or did they just bust through them?

 

Order in-stock wheels and tires from Tire Rack. They will be on your doorstep in about 3 days. Mounted, balanced and ready to go.

 

that sucks man,

definetly send them an invoice from the dealership... untill then I would pick up a cheap set off someone untill your insurance company compensates you

 

Ouch.. that sucks!

No other damage to your car I assume?

 

I heard in Texas you can shoot someone if they threaten you, you family, or your property. Imagine if that could happen in MD, then less people would have their rims stolen.

 

+1 to the comment regarding it depends on which insurance company you have. AIG, Geico, and E-surance are very aftermarket freindly. I have had 3 accidents, none of which were my fault and each time when it was time to get repairs done they paid the amount on the invoice that I sent in and in one case paid extra because the body work estimate came in low. If you have a police report that will help you out with geico because they have a tendency to think "fraud" very quickly. Hope this helps, and good luck getting new wheels.

 

I have a set of 04 stock rims that Me and couple buddies painted gold because we were bored.

It has no tread left but you can use my wheels for the time being if you'd like.

 

The rest of the car is fine for now. This bastards used skinny decorative bricks to hold up the car. I'm concerned some knuckle head kid is going to come by and mess with the car and it will fall off its perch. One of the bricks is already leaning. I think I will just get new wheels and deal with the insurance company on a reimbursement. I don't have a driveway, my car is a little ways from my actual house and the retards who do the towing in the development have towed improperly twice. Plus, I have a pretty high deductible which means that I will be paying for most of the cost to replace the wheels anyway. Buying beaters and then buying proper replacements down the road is going to cost me more. I bet this was done by fifteen year olds. The crazy thing is I was two weeks away from moving into a condo in Crystal City with garage parking on March 1st. The move was driven in part by the fact that I had this new car and wanted to keep it in a garage. I changed my mind at the last minute because of hassles with renting out my house. Stupid!

damn, sorry to hear that good luck with everything.

 

sorry to hear the...
do you have any pics of your car on blocks?? I never seen a G on blocks...

 

i got stock 04 touring wheels at my possesion with decent tread if u wanna borrow.... no need to buy wheels u dont want. u can borrow them until u find a aftermarket set.

 

Thanks for all the offers and assistance. You guys are some supportive *****. I just spoke to the dealer about a quote to send to the insurance company. They want $766 per wheel. Gotta love it. Anyway I got the quote. I think I will just order wheel and tires from tire rack. If I'm getting aftermarket wheels any suggestions for something moderately priced. Doesn't have to be cheap. I prefer understated style (I actually liked my stock wheels a lot) and no black or chrome.

 

Work Emotion Cr Kais, Volk LE37, Advan RS, Enkei RP03, Volk CE28

But my favorite would be Advan RS

Well what color is your car and what look are you aiming for(aggressive, clean, etc..)?

 

Pick up a used set, save some money!

 

The car is black with 35% tint. I'm somewhere between aggressive and clean. The car is a daily driver and I don't want to be pulling into the firm with anything to over the top. When I get back down to weekend driving I might be willing to be a bit more expressive.

 

Then I'd go with bronze Work emotion CR kais. Lets people know that youre not stock but still keep the clean look.

Ive always wanted to see a black Z with bronze emotion CR kais(In real life). I think it would look sexy. Thats my .02.

 

Damn wish I had a set of wheels to let you borrow until you got your **** straight. That really sucks, and I'm dorry to hear about it... but at least they put your car on blocks and didn't just drop your rotors on the ground.

 

Oh i forgot to say, jack your car up so you dont risk damaging your nuckle or anything.
