I had 2 of my wheels stolen from my old car parking it outside of my house. The alarm went off in the middle of the night, and I didn't took much notice of it. Woke up in the morning and found my car on bricks and 3 wheels were gone. They almost got all 4, but I think the car fell a little bit when they tries to get the last wheel off, and that must've triggered the alarm that probably scared the thieves away. The police found a wheel down the road in someone's front yard, so luckily I only had to replace 2 wheels instead of 3.

Don't get any of those generic lock nuts as they are very easy to get off, since the thieves will probabaly have the same key.

I recommend McGard lock nuts, since each master lock nut is computer generated and need a unique key to match the pattern, while the rest of the nut needs a special key to open as well.

Lock nuts are usless when the ass hole have one of these Gator Grip

think about it... if you can go to a tyre shop and get them to remove them cause you lost the socket, then its obviously not that hard to get the tools.

theyre only good for the everyday cockstab whos bored and in need of some quick cash for crack... other then that... might as well just stick a note on them asking them to leave them the f*k alone or their penis or vagina will fall off cause you sprayed the wheels with TB, Gonorrhoea, Chlamydia, Syphilis, Trichomonas, Human papillomavirus, Genital herpes and Hepatitis B

Can't remember the wheel colour, or about the spoiler. I remember it had orange personal plates but i can't remember what it said. If I had to guess it'd probably say 'TOSS'

[Gazzilla]

haha... Locknuts are useless full stop. All I need is a Socket set. and Ill get any type of locknut off.. Not that I go stealing wheels or anything... Im just saying.

Cheers, dont know of the xr6, sorry mate

It was a thomo east ground on leslie street, 2 mins away from Dalton rd. I also found out some more info last night that another car pulled up beside the s15 and were chatting away laughing all near my car, i bloody wish i had kept a look out for my car whilst there, i do every other bloody time. It was a car full of 'lebo's' was all i got told (2nd hand info). Doesnt give me much tho. Dont know what car they rolled up in either.

[loymclure]

you just bash a socket over the top and get them off interference fit style

lol this is like a quote out of "Playschool" in frankston
