Damn what's with the SF area and S2k's? Everytime I read a "my car got stolen" thread it's from the SF area. What's with that?
It may be due to the fact garages are hard to find in the city and most people are forced to park on the streets.

Don't know how the price of original wheels compare (honda usually charges lots for everything), but you may like to look for a set of aftermarket ones instead.

Would hardtopguy be able to source you some?

There's always ebay?

Damn, even with wheel locks. I thought they can't get it off unless they are in a chop shop...

I saw my mechanic buddy take a set of wheels off my car in less than 5 mins, including the wheel locks. He said they don't slow anyone down if they know what they're doing, but it will help prevent the random thefts.

If your insurance company will cover the cost of the wheels, more than likely you'll be able to get a nice set of aftermarket wheels. The stock wheels tend to be a little expensive as new parts from the dealer.

Thank you to all for the help with the wheels.
I found a local S2K owner with the wheels.
Again, THANKS.
