Default Check out what happened to me this morning

I walk outside my house today to go get in my S to go to work and what do I find..............19 lugnuts on the roof on my car!! All of my lugnuts were removed except for 1, and all 4 tires were still on the car. Nothing else done to the car. I have no Idea what the hell that was all about but my guess was they were trying to rob the rims. Ohh they were the stock rimss too.

Thats F$%#$d up! Maybe they tried stealing your wheels for a riced out civic/integra and didn't notice it was 5 lugs.

There should be any damage. Did you have locks?

Can you imagine what would have happened if they did not put them on the roof of the car? You may have gotten in and started driving off.

I know I thought about that one, that would be some bad news.

yeah if u live in a bad maybe try getting three different sets of wheel
locks.
At least they can only take 2 from each wheel and u could put
back the missing lugs from the box.

Or a basic alarm after that one.

had 5 diff. ones on my TL (but it had rims) some thought it was dumb, but i thought it was funny and free, so i did it!
are you sure it wasn't a joke someone played on you???
i just doesn't make sense if they basically freed all 3 tires and just had one more to go... why not steal the 3 and worry about one some other night off some other S??????
unless the plan was to quickly remove all nuts, then quickly steal everything? i'd personally do it one by one, to atleast assure me i'm getting at least A rim!
