hmm... idk if the area i live in is bad enough to do that... but thats a hell of a smart idea!

[chaldowhiteboy]

yeah that's a really good idea.. but why not just get lug nut locks?

most people with tuner lugs have the same exact key, 4 of my friends have the same tuner lugs and keys , so keys are very common

As soon as I clicked that link and saw that site I closed the window because it felt like I was in the internet circa 1997. No thanks.

It was on the top of the page, and you still managed to screw up the spelling of "thief"? ;)

Seriously though, that is a good idea. I wouldn't have thought of something like that.

HAHA. Yeah, I was a bit confused, too. It looked real old.

It was late, so hush.

Hence why i have Hyundai locking lugs.

When I see locking lugs, I think to myself, "Hey, if you're going to steal my wheels, can you break my window too?"

[Silentwolf]

Not necessarily, cause it means extra hassle and the possibility of calling attention to themselves.

Stealing rims I think would cause enough attention. Most thieves would just take the whole car.(the least amount hassle involved) I mean seriously how long does it take to jack up a car 4 times?

[bdiggy]

But putting a car up on blocks and walking away with the rims draws no attention,lol?

Non the less, that is a cool idea.

EDIT: Damn! ^^Beat me to it.

lol yeah that's for sure.. el cajon is just as bad though and that's where i live!

[Ugzz]

that is tempting.. so let me make sure im reading this right, there is literally a bag inside each tire? that doesnt cause any issues? also a simple ziplock holds up to all that bouncing around in there? if it breaks is it any worse to have all that paper in there?

just seems weird..

[KeWLKaT]

what going to break with a ziplock inside of a tire? You can just stick in on the inside of the rubber or something I guess? While it's rolling it'll get forced onto the outer surface anyways.

[ricerrx7]

You could tape it to the wheel itself...

[SuperGLS]

Better yet you could put GPS tracking devices in them and then go the persons house while they are sleeping, steal your wheels back, and take a poop on their hood.

you made me laugh so hard i had to try and hold it in, but doing so just made me cough. you son of a *****

but yes, you could do that

[xdforme22]

That's slightly reminiscent of the Skyline Robber thread :)

:abovelol: HAHA!! I'm glad no one was home to hear that laugh. Now that's one hell of an idea.
