Did you file a police report? It would seem like a team of pros doing it. They get busted and you have the police report, you might get the rims back. With thieves it’s only a matter of time until greed takes over and they get caught. Although it doesn’t help you in the short term.
My apologies for making light of it man and I hope they catch the slime responsible.
Dude.. It's ok man, you didn't offend me. It's a bummer, but in my lifetime I've had a vehicle stolen from me 3-times, and broken into twice to steal tools. At least it was just the tires and rims this time.
The odd thing is.. They really weren't anything special. The tires were about 4-years old, and the rims were POS rims.
Times are desperate these days. A lot of people are laid off and have lost their jobs. And this kind of thing is only gonna get worse in my neighborhood. I've started noticing a lot of tagging surfacing over the last year. Even tagged my work Van a few months ago. There are a lot of Mexican gangs around here. I knew it was only a matter of time before I got hit. And I actually don't consider this all that bad.
Ruined my day though.
I'll tell you what though. Had I walked out on it happening, it could have gotten a lot worse. I live alone, and I don't have a gun.
Maybe it's time to pick me up a nice big fat shotgun. Hey Sans.. Who makes a good affordable shotgun these days? Time for me to get protected.
