Default Haha, You Lose, I Win

LOL, well, I hate thieves. So much infact that I tracked down my wheels that were stolen off my car a month ago. I now have them back in my possession (and will be going up for sale). A lot of people helped me along the way as well. The person that took them off my car is still at large, but the police now have that person's info. My wheels were purchased for only 1k from the thief. That's an insult almost. Anyway, I'm headed to bed, and the thief should be apprehended tomorrow. Will keep you guys posted on that aspect. But for now, lets hear some offers for my wheels since I already bought new ones.

I wanna see a full writeup with pics tomorrow, this is going to be one of the best stories I've ever heard. BTW, since you got them back, do you have to give your insurance the money back? And did you get your stock wheels also?

This is GREAT news. Definitely fill us in on the details. If it involves any police report, I'm sure you'll have to pay back the ins. co the $1000 they gave you for the aftermarket set. No biggie, since you'll get more than that when you sell them anyways.
