You won't believe this

lyjw88 · 05-19-2008, 05:02 AM

Okay, I just found this mess out and still can't believe this sh*t.
WTF........
I called the cop but had no luck...
The stolen wheels were 19" iForged Essens.
What should I do?

Edited: Pics of the wheels that were stolen. Tires are Kumho SPT. There's a noticeable curb rash on passenger side's rear rim.
Please contact me when you see these wheels somewhere.

Update: I contacted Bavarian Performace Group and one of the technician came to my place and put my winter tires back on. There was no damage on the brake rotors and coilovers...phew...And I ordered an OEM alarm, and DEI shock sensor.

i feel you man but you know shit happens, life needs to move on, hope your insurance covers that.

gonzo · 05-19-2008, 05:21 AM

Ouch! Low life bastards.
All you can do is keep your eyes out for them rolling or at some pawn shops.
Ouch again.
Did this happen Sat nite/Sun morning?

jeho · 05-19-2008, 05:23 AM

sad to see this happening to a german car,
usually punks just go for the japanese rice...

No, around 2~3 am Monday.

shit man, sorry to hear, time to get some wheel locks and look for those wheels on craigslists and carry a nice crow bar around

koreez88 · 05-19-2008, 05:34 AM

sillygoat · 05-19-2008, 05:41 AM

did you have locks? im guessing no... but im sure people can still steel wheels with locks on.

Neema · 05-19-2008, 05:43 AM

holly shit wow. . . . I would be devastated, especially since this finish is unavailable. But hey man I can get you an awesome awesome deal on some new iForged wheels, in whatever style and finish you want. I used to have two sets of iForged wheels before I got DPE's, so I'm friends with the two managers/owners and have other connections for their wheels as well. So just let me know, I'd be more then happy to help you get back on your feet as soon as possible man. I can also get you a great deal on some toyo TR-1's or even Falken FK452's for around 800-1000 shipped. I can also have the wheels pumped out for you faster then they are normally made (I have the connections to do so). So yea man. . . anything you need, I'm here.

Kev · 05-19-2008, 05:51 AM

WTF!? Sorry, man. This really blows. I see a Porsche behind your car, untouched. This is likely a targeted hit and not some random shit. Get a set of wheel lock next time. Check your PM.

rubber_ducky · 05-19-2008, 05:57 AM

Man that sucks. I feel for you.

would the factory alarm have helped in this case? Does it have a motion/level sensor?

rubber_ducky · 05-19-2008, 05:59 AM

Just saw that you're in Boston... no surprise the police weren't much help.

TofuTurkey · 05-19-2008, 06:07 AM

Does the lot have a security camera? Maybe the tape can provide some leads, but I guess the cop would have covered that.

[and here's the paranoia thoughts...]
Sometimes I think maybe some small video cameras hidden in the car would be useful, like showing who's at fault during an accident, or in this case revealing who the thieves are. Then again, if they saw the cameras, they're likely to do more damage...
[/thoughts]

PIMP "E" · 05-19-2008, 06:10 AM

i didnt know people are still stealing rims....... it had to be some one you know or some one who been looking at your car for a while. this was well planned, they should of at least got some bigger bricks for the car.

ArmyBimmerDude · 05-19-2008, 06:24 AM

Wow, I haven't seen this happen in a long time. On an E92, it looks so fucked up. Like your car was raped.

remmib · 05-19-2008, 06:25 AM

That sucks big time

Hoothout · 05-19-2008, 06:36 AM

damn, i would be furious if that happen shit

Neema · 05-19-2008, 06:40 AM

Hey, can someone in boston lend this guy some stock wheels? That the first step.

Run to pep boys or wal-mart first thing in the morning and get a set of decent jack stands to put this thing on while you wait for someone to lend you their wheels, or rent them out or something. But, step 1: get this thing rolling again. Step 2: file a police report. Step 3: if you have the money to, then order a new set of wheels, and if they ever find your old ones, just sell them, or sell the new ones. Step 4: get some wheel locks!

addy85 · 05-19-2008, 06:41 AM

HOLY SHIT!

Neema · 05-19-2008, 06:43 AM
