Turd-burglars suck! Wheel locks Rock!

Some buttholes tried to steal my rims last night! They broke off one of my lug caps and scratched the hell out of two of my rims trying to get them off. Thank god for wheel locks. It still is gonna cost me 25 for a new lug cap but thats better than new rims. i also have to live with knowing my rims are all scratched. i'm just a little pissed right now. Had to vent.

It sux when that happen. Thats Why Im planning to install on all four Lug on each of the Rims a wheel Lock so its really hard for them to steal it they can't even remove one Lug unless they have the key for all four lugs and I gonna use four different key for each Lug. But it gonna hard for me to change tires

Hey, just powder coat your rims, then it will be all better. You're lucky they didn't screw anything else up man, some people would RUIN your whole car for that...(ie paint, glass, tires, etc). Sorry about your luck[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/IMG]
