Stolen Wheels! - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

PradiG · 03-24-2013, 08:33 PM

Hey Guys, i know this isn't a RSX forum, but as fellow car enthusiasts, i figured i'd post this here as well. My friend Kevin Ha had his wheels stolen off of his RSX in Anaheim CA and it was left on blocks.

Wheel Specs: Rays/Volk VRX10
17x9 +44 & 17x8.
(Says VRX10 on the lip.)

If possible, please keep a look out. I would hate to see someone lose something they worked hard / saved for.

Thanks for looking

A set of wheel locks is a great investment. They are standard no charge with my dealer.

All the negatives comments have been said to him already. But lets not kick the man while he's already down. When someone wants something, wheel locks wont stop them, just delay them.

Lesson learned here. Cant change the fact that they've been stolen, but its a good lesson for anyone to learn.

Guess wheel locks would be a good investment for anyone

Again, thanks for looking

I'll keep an eye on it. In the Valley area.

TBH keeping an eye out in RL isn't smart. Other people have those wheels and the nut might be dangerous espically if it doesn't have any unique features/damage. Although I'll keep an eye out on places like classified, eBay, Craigslist, etc

Giccin · 03-25-2013, 03:10 AM

I'll... check out the swap meets since... I've seen a couple "shoes" that were stolen there. (I go only because I'm looking for a small beanie. Lol)

Hah. "Sold as is" mmmhm.. report. lol

Its completely understandable where you're coming from. But i think these wheels are more on the rare side than the common side. Its not too often you'd see these around.

I hate thieves! My roof fack was stolen off my car and left me with a fucked up roof panel. I know how it feels to get stuff taken from you, but damn, I just posted this in another thread a few weeks ago... OP, look into these knuckleheads since you live predominantly close to where they meet. I hope my link helps.

Will do thanks! The owner identified the wheels as Rays/Volk not works though. I'm sure he has alot of friends checking zilvia as well. Thank you!

Smart idea!

Thank you as we'll!

Ah! You got me there... I skipped the part where you had mentioned the make and model, and just took a quick glance on the picture, nevertheless, that's another site I would check since there's a big market for that size and type of wheels amongst NISSAN S-Chasis owners.
