Wheel Theft PSA

Apparently someone is going around stealing TRD wheels in Vista.

That’s insane! Right out in the open?

 

I wonder what else there is besides wheel locks. Sure, a wheel lock is a wheel lock, and a regular nut is not.
But, as they say, when there's a will there's a way.

Insurance is good to have. Maybe a dashcam that's motion sensing. But doesn't really deter.
Bunch of different locks would make rotates a pain. I guess two sets of locks instead of one wouldn't be the worst to rotate.
Maybe it's just an unavoidable part of life.

 

The gal has a dash cam but the scumbags jammed it somehow so she got nothing. Pretty much insurance is your only viable option

 

Another one, in Oceanside off of Douglas.

 

Damn.

 

This one was on Feb 29th in carlsbad

 

Amateurs.

Around here it's Silverados and they only leave one brick per vehicle.

 

Wheel locks aren't created equal:

 

I guess next time I get new tires I'm going to have them throw an Airtag in each of them.

 

Those Kings are ripe for the picking....

All kidding aside, sorry about the wheels...

 

North county San Diego for the win! sucks alot

 

Sometimes you gotta sleep in the bed made by those around you.

Sucks.. bad.

 

Thankfully it isn't my truck, just reposted for awareness.

 

This is brutal.

 

Anyone have photos of the wheels that were stolen? Thinking we can keep an eye out on FB marketplace/Offerup/Craigslist in case the vandal is stupid enough to list them.

 

Another one, totally count apparently now 7.

 

Are these all in SD?

 

North county SD.

Carlsbad
Oceanside
Vista
San Marcos
Etc.

 

They must be doing this pretty fast for no one to notice. I feel it'd be pretty obvious for someone to steal a set of wheels out in the open. Then again people were stealing catalytic converters I guess too.
