DAYUM that is fucked up!! That same shit happened to my sister's car like 5 years ago. It was a '98 Corolla with the factory wheels and hubcaps, not even aftermarkets wheels. Insurance paid like 400 per wheel/tire. Rotors never hit the ground.

Re: Just Got OWNED!

Darn, that's really messed up. Sorry for your dilema. BTW, did you have wheel locks and how many on each wheel? Would wheel locks have made a difference?

Koni yellows ... got them installed for around $800 total, alignment was extra. And yes, they are adjustable.

I use “The System” from Gorilla.
All (20) Lugs are locks and there are over 10,000 different possible key combinations.
And the engagement points are on the SIDE which makes them much harder to bypass.
Even if you could, it would booger the wheel up something awful.

Of course nothing is foolproof, but I’m making it as difficult as I can for a thief.
