Thread: Celica wheels gone.

  1. #1

    Default Celica wheels gone.

    I've been driving the porsche all weekend for various reasons but this is what I found when I got back to the celica this morning.







    The wheels weren't worth much, and I hated the tires but this is a really bad time for me to have to fuck with this (like theres ever a good time). All I have to say is f those low-life scum-sucking pieces of **** that stole my wheels. I hope you all get herpes while committing a sex crime that you get caught for. You'll then have the herp, your pic on the sex offender site, and you'll probably never get laid again. /yourselves

    Check out my other thread about the rest of my weekend.

    Yeah, I'll keep my eyes open but even if I did find them its unlikely I would get them back. They've probably already been painted with some silver spray paint and are on some a-holes 77 celica rust bucket.

    thsi is getting to the point where it's really becoming an issue in this area, and Its pissing me off no one is doing anything about it...

    A Few months ago someone stole the wheels off my Rx7 in front of my house(roomate was HOME). Two other Rx7 guys have had their wheels stolen. Two different coworkers have had theirs stolen off their trucks (at their house) Someone stole a Stack of MSM wheels from Hiley's lot in Hurst... And Now yours.....

    The cops basically just told me "yeah, we've had a problem with that lately. Not much we can do" And it's to the point where I'm freakin fed up with it...

    Unfortunately, I dunno what to do anout it either... Suggestions?

    Pictures of my car as I found it...

    All you can do is make every effort to limit the thieves’ window of opportunity, but sadly if they want what you have badly enough they will find a way to get it away from you. Heck the cut the fence to snag Evil’s wheels.

    A good friend of mine just had his front door kicked on his house in the middle of the day, the alarm company called the police but by the time they arrived (in under 10 minutes) the thieves were already gone and so was quite a bit of his stuff.

    I agree. I just filed the police report and pretty much got the same thing. The only thing I know to do other than what pos said is to pay attention to whats going on. If you hear a funny noise, or a car alarm going off, look!

    I would love to catch somebody in the act. They would not have a good day.

    my personal annoyance was that the cops obviously knew it had been a big problem in that area and told me "Ya know, if you have nice wheels like that its pretty dumb not to park in the garage. We've been seeing this a lot in this area lately"

    Well gee... Thanks for telling us BEFORE we get things stolen.. Telling us we're stupid after the fact doesn't exactly lead us to feel like you care so much...

    IF they said to keep our eyes out because it's been happening a lot (in my particular subdivision and teh one next to it) someone might have known to look out...

    Come on now!

    Since back in the day when onething chiseled out his first wheel back before dirt, the others in his nomadic pack where trying to take his wheel.
