First off what kind of rims? Brand, model, color, size? Second, to prosecute you have to find the suspects first.

report to local pd.
check craigslist asap, stolen items are usually dirt cheap to sell fast.

hope all goes well like something like this:
SoCalEvo.net: LOL. Thief got caught trying to steal rims on tape.

damn dude...

i had a lot of stuff stolen from me in college... had my sounds taken, my bike stolen, even my junky old integra.

not once did i ever catch the person... it's funny since hawaii is so small, yet the cops (in my opinion) never catch anyone.

good luck and check craigslist/ebay ASAP, you might get lucky with a dumb driminal.

Sorry to hear that. I would call da cops and make a report. Voice your concerns to them too. Our house got broken into a while back. Some dude kicked in the back door, used my own gym bag to load the stolen stuff and split. We never caught the guy. We put in an alarm after that.

Yeah, I read in da paper today that some guy caught the guy who stole his computer when he saw it posted on Craig's List.

How were your wheels stored? Could they be seen from the street? Was anything else taken? What time of the day did this happen?

When I first moved into my townhouse in waikele my sounds got jacked my neighbor saw but they were too quick and later on my gsr got stolen and shell found in waianae 2 days later

I went through the same sort of thing all of the time when I lived in Dallas.... People don't wander around and steal from crazy people that live in the woods.... I hope you are able to get your stuff back and by all means prosecute the thieving bastards and shoot their asses if they show up again.

I feel really bad that that you are going through this and can relate to the way you feel having been through the same sort of thing many times.... I hope that someone will step forward and tell you where your wheels are and that they find their way back to you.

Sorry for the loss, report it asap, give them pics and detailed description, check ebay, craigs list, and look out for other cars with them on.

F***** thieves!


lower the car so they cant steal the rims! also an alarm with proximity sensor is the best!
autopage has a good one.

^ lol comment above. especially since Dog and his crew aren't really welcomed folk in Hawaii...

anyways. did the rims get jacked from your car? or sitting in a garage? if it was on the car, the insurance might cover it!

and yah like hondamatic said, post the details!

good luck with the find!

Sorry for the lost At least that's all they took and no one got hurt. Call the cops asap! Although, I've had crap jacked as well and the cops were basically useless. :/

Check Craigslist every so often and visit forums for cars that have the same lug pattern :/ Good luck finding the thief!
