My Mags Were Stolen

[map7]

The other day after washing my car I returned to my appartment to find my storage cage in the under ground secure car park had been broken into, and all 4 17" Advan RG's were stolen. They also all had new rubber on them .

I had them in there as I was going to get them re-rolled after an accident I had with them. Three of them need re-rolling and one of those three is cracked and buckled. I did however find a place which could fix that crack and re-roll them for me and I was looking forward to doing that.

If anyone sees any Gold 17" Advan RG's around for sale could they let me know.

Sorry to hear that Mic

Are they not listed on your insurance policy? No cameras in the carpark or on the street either?

Hope you get them back, or it'd be even better to get a payout for the market value of those wheels so you can buy a new set

[Interloper]

that sucks, but at least they were stolen before you fixed them....would have been worse if you had spent the $$ to get them fixed and then they were stolen...

haha, the thieves probably thought they were getting mint condition mags, they'll get a shock later on

[KamikazeR33]

shame u should contact the place that was goin to fix them n let them know to lookout for them

[map7]

kaz180, no cameras, no they were not on the insurance as they were not on a car yet.

KamikazeR33, good point theres only a handfull of places which fix these type of rims.

*sent you a pm

[inark]

also check ebay everyday.

and every other forum where these would be likely to turn up (ie. other makes that use the same PCD)

If you need to find places that fix them do a search in the Vic section, not many places will touch them.

Keep your eye's on the for sale section on other import forums too.

Does your bodycorp insurance cover any theft from the carpark?

That was gonna be my qn too as it's kinda on "common property" down there, although on a techincality, it may be considered your property being the apartments storage area.

Being out of sight, there's a fair chance the thief MAY be an associate of resident in your block.

There was a burgular in the apartments next to my work last week.

Followed a car in through rolladoor, disarmed door panel so he didn't get locked in, sprayed paint over camera lenses & broke into the cars in the underground car park.

OMG Mic,

So sorry to hear this seeing as I used to live in the same building and we used to park next to each other.

Their were some guys in my section of the building that used to admire my car and were obviously aware of japanese cars. They were always checking out my car when I pulled up and had talked to me about it a couple of times. They would be the only suspects I could think of and I don't really want to point the finger either. I would do a door knock and flyer drop, I would also suggest you look into my section of the building the second yellow door at the front where the entrance to apartment 24 & 25 are.

My storage container was right next to yours and I stored all my stock parts and 4 x S15 rims with tyres and 4 x S14 rims with tyres and spare tread. This would suggest it would be someone new to the building because if they had been living there previously they would've stolen all my stuff as well.

I have a new policy on thieves...their balls shoudl be cut off and fed to them. If they refuse to eat them their fingers should be chopped off and put in a blender with their balls and then force fed to them via a 20mm tube down their throat.

SCUMBAGS!!!!!!!!!!!

^^ someone give this man some political power!!!!

[phunky_monkey]

Sorry to hear man, that sucks...

[ctjet]

best bet would be to do the idea Kam said... put a flyer in the window or make those shops aware that stolen property might cross their path... They have to fix them or they're useless to them. Plus selling damaged rims gets you a very little return. At least they wont make money out of this... the pieces of shit that they are

[Kozeyekan]

.... they weren't on the car?

How sure of that are you?

Now, let's suppose one of the theives knew a thing or two about cars.

Is it not possible that they saw that one was damaged, and decided to see if they rolled right?

Is it not possible that they decided to do so by trying them on a car?

Is it not possible that they chose the nearest available (i.e. yours)

Is it not possible that they happened to have a tyre iron with them (they had to pry their way intot the secure cage somehow)

Is it not possible that they put the rims on the car, just to make sure that they rolled right, and fit on the car properly?

Therefore, is it not possible that you would, in fact be covered by insurance?

Of course, it's also possible that the rims were never taken off the car, but infact were stolen from the car itself.

i think I understand what ur getting at...but unless ur policy has been updated for the wheels then ur not covered.
