That sucks. Hopefully nothing was seriously damaged by it sitting on the ground like that.

can you really claim aftermarket wheels like this case? My Volk was second hand and I know they won't believe a Paypal's receipt lol, they will think its fake. I'm sure my OEM Rays wheels are expensive from dealership to be claim for..

thats horrible... they could've at least left the bodywork undamaged.

But locks wont ever ensure the safety of your wheels. If a thief wants your wheels, hes getting them.

you should've had locks, even though that won't provide too much protection if they really wanted the wheels, but better then nothing...

sucks about the wheels, keep the money insurance gives you and save it towards new wheels when you move .

I have all the receipts from the tires and wheels when i bought them new, so I am just waiting on getting the check from State Farm. They sent out an adjuster for the body damage and estimated about $700 damage to the rocker panels.

I have an appointment to get it back to pretty on monday.

Now I just need to figure out what i want to do with my stockers. I was priced out Michelin Pilot Sports 255/45/17 for the rears as they are completely bald.

$375 for 2, installed. Not to bad. I think I may go with that.

I really want to put a eibach pro kit on the car but am getting heat from the fiance as we are getting married soon and paying for our own wedding.

"do you really need to lower your car?"
"did I really need to get you such a nice ring? i could of had a turbo"
(i didn't say that)

Its really hard to justify lowering your car when you are damn near 30 and have other things to pay for.

The only argument I had was, that it will handle better, it will be safer and that it would look better.

She's already got em in the purse. : )

Damn that sucks specially when its in a good area. Im so surprised on how someone pulls that off without anyone seeing anything.

If I caught someone doing that to me all they would hear is "got sig?"
