Didn\'t wanna start another post so...

///Update...A week without my baby was horrible but all is well in the world now.. got my new rims..enjoy the pics.

But not what you think....FK me..I hate people, I hate thieves, liars, crooks, scum of the earth. I would wish bad on them but I believe in karma. well here are the pics..
I woke up to this at 5:30am, my neighbor called 911 at 2:30am and said there were people out there by my car, they told her that they are sending someone out. And when I spoke with the cop at 6am, he said the call wasn't even dispatched. NOT EVEN DISPATCHED.

The way this picture looks one would have expected that the car slipped off the support blocks (they look so skimpy and dangerous) and cut there thiving hands off (leaving finger prints).

Looks like this was done in an apartment or condominium parking lot and the thives come in with lifts and blocks ready to lift the entire car and leave with 4 wheels. Hope they catch the suckers soon. What is the world coming to. ~shakes head~

I live in a nice neighborhood, so I thought. Cop said that these guys come from Baltimore or DC and scope nice neighborhoods and plan for this. I had the OEM 19 in m3 rims and it's what distinguished them. Still have the fkn temp tags for fuck sake. And I live in a town home where my neighbor's got a 2012 gran sport 30 feet away.

With or without wheel locks?

Were the 220Ms mint? Or scuffed up?

(Just trying to profile them - Pro/Thugs)

I had this happen in a nice neighborhood several years back as well

To add to your cop story though, I actually tracked down the guy who stole them (I had pictures of the serial numbers of my wheels before they were stolen so I could confirm they were mine) thanks to the internet and some helpful people browsing the classifieds. Tried to get the cops assigned to the theft to show up and arrest the guy trying to sell the wheels and they wouldn't do shit!

On the bright side for you, those OEMs are not cheap and you can take the money and put them towards a nice set of aftermarket wheels (you'll get far more from insurance for those wheels than you ever would have trying to sell them here). And this time try to get some wheel locks (and maybe an alarm!).

Wow. Sucks big time. This kind of shit really gets my blood boiling. I have never had anything like this ever happen to me, but I can only think that it would lead me to serious violence against the losers that did this. Sorry you have to deal with this.

There is a counterpoint, and a lesson here, however. Please don't take it the wrong way, because what happened to you is sad and inexcusable. However, you really shouldn't own a car like an M3 if you don't have a secure place to park it. You are just asking for trouble. Nice area or not, an open parking spot in a condo complex is not secure. At the very least, you need a secure tenant garage, if not your own private garage.

Just my thoughts. Hope they catch the little fuckers.

Wheel locks seemed like a good idea but unfortunately the cop said that most people put them INSIDE cars and these thieves know this so I would have had wheels missing AND a broken window. So viper alarm, how is that
