Default Stolen prodrive pff7's

Woke up this morning to find that someone has nicked my alloys.

I'm gutted, they had bridgestones on as well.

I don't suppose anyone fancies selling me some for my53 blob.

Cheers

Sorry to hear. Did you have any kind of wheel locks on them?

Thing is you can easily buy sockets for removing ANY wheel nut. They have a opposite thread so as they tighten up they undo yours. So does not matter if you have locking wheel nuts.

^Exactly what I was going to say. While locking nuts will prevent novice criminals from stealing your wheels, someone who knows what they are doing, and wants your wheels, will most likely steal them. Stupid criminals, earn your money like the rest of us.

My wheel nuts only just get a socket on so you wouldn't be able to get one of those sockets on so hopefully you would hear them chisel them off.
Did they leave it on bricks or just drop it on the deck

We'll as stated

You must have left the car in some very dodgy area (Liverpool perhaps ), I also haven't heard of wheels only being stolen for at over 10 years
