This makes me cry......
Vanishing point...Hell, if they take the car, I don't want it back. Who knows what hidden damage they may have done. Pay the deductible, and get a new one. just keep the premiums paid. Write it of to life's experiences.

Actually, GTR wheels are quite sought after in certain markets...

DrKelso,
If you're talking about the small hex bolt between the wheel studs, those are, from what I know are there to prevent you or someone not knowledgeable of the different wheel dimensions of the rear wheels to the front wheels from mounting the rear wheels to the front axle and vise versa. Nissan 350z's also have that small hex bolt to prevent such mistakes of mounting rear wheels to the front. They may be a 10 or 12 millimeter hex bolt. Oh yeah, they also com in handy when the rotors are rusted onto the hub. Remove the spacer on the bolt and screw the bolt back in the rotor until the bolt hits the hub and the rotor assembly slowly moves away from the hub in a diagonal manner, right where the hex bolt is. Hahahaha! Hope I'm not confusing you with my long post. I'll re-explain if so.

Oh, looks like the little trick I told you about using the small bolt to remove the rotor from the hub won't work on the GTR. Looks like from the picture the rotor is held on to something by a bunch of hex nuts. Probably after removing them perhaps...
this really sucks, my old coworker got his 26's stolen off of his denali, they left his car on milk crates.... oh and btw these rims sell quicker than you think.... it is rare to see a set on sale, but when you find one it doesnt last that long, someone will come up and take it...
