we should adapt a similar policy as to that in korea. They have absolutely no theft cause they know if they do steal its gonna be hard to puck things up that need two hands . I hope your buddy gets his wheels back or his insurance gives him some money or something.

Korea? try saudi. they publicly remove limbs, stone, and execute the bad guys. Wish we could do that here! hope you catch the bad guys.

I think with the more emphasis on nice wheels instead of other mods (think stance), there is going to be a increase on wheels/tires getting stolen.

There already is in N.Y. They are even taking pricey OEMs over here.

Thieves like easy money and getting $1500-2000 for a set of quality wheels on the streets qualifies.

Only true jdm people would know what these wheels are. These are rare specs and wheels. If they pop up for sale, im sure they are the missing wheels. I have some super advans also but the version 2. This makes me worried now about mine

I heard something about spinning wheel locks. What are these, and would they help prevent wheel theft? Compared to Honda OEM wheel locks?

This is a shame :-( sorry man I hope the pop up somewhere! This has been happening with BMW Oem wheels for the last 8-9 years, the price of resale on them was so high that they would stake out dealers and in one night hit 6-7 cars. Nothing like walking up to work in the morning seeing that and ruining your day having to talk to the owners...
