STOLE MY WHEELS. Lug lock key

California he's likely to get arrested and have a civil suit brought by the thief.

 

Next time they're just gonna steal the whole truck

 

My gut says most thieves have a spare wheel lock key on hand

 

Damn... sorry to hear OP! You'e taking this much better than I would have!

 

Not in Texas

 

Cause he's dead lol

 

The thief, way so thoughtful to find four perfectly balanced bricks so near by. I wish all criminals would operate at this level and the the world would be a great place for Us and our Children. And to not even attempt to get inside the truck while taking your priceless wheels and tire. We should be so proud of these wheel tire steeling guys. Great Americans we shall call them!

 

If I am robbed I am hoping it is by these guys.

 

They’re not all the same. I thought I lost mine when I was swapping my wheels and I had to search high and low for it. 4WD Parts said there are a lot of sets and they were not easy to get off without the key.

 

Sorry to hear OP. From now on, I’m going to store mine somewhere in the cab the thief would never think to look. Behind the kick plates, taped up hidden in the center console (bottom cubby hole) zip tied under the seat or in the dashboard.... just hope I don’t forget where I hide it!

 

I would make breakfast for guys that took that much care in stealing my wheels and tires.

 

When the new Toyota CHR’s first arrived on the lot at my work, some thieves took the wheels off one within a few days.
We have way too many cameras for him to even have a chance of getting away lol.

Like really come on now, these cars (and their wheels) look pretty damn horrible...

 

Dang, I guess it is a kinder gentler Nation we are dealing with.

 

I got my rims jacked off my 84 Nissan and they left me tossed on the curb.

 

Just have 6 different security lug nuts. Aint no one gunna bother to go through that hassle to take them off. I mean im sure there is someone that will try to

 

But if they do, go through the bother of the 6 different size lugs, I am sure they will also go through the bother of bringing or looking for 4 balanced bricks to leave your truck on.

 

Years ago, my first job as a lot kid at a Toyota lot thieves used to steal the spare tires off the trucks at the lot. We already installed the wheel locks to all the cars during the PDI inspection (charged back to the customers, of course), but they got sneaky and just swiped the spares.

So we would take off all the spares and only reinstall upon delivery.

I keep my key in the truck but hidden in the back to hopefully dissuade a thief.

 

At this point tweakers.
Not saying..but to go thru this trouble and not, i would of just taken the truck.

Super lucky bro!!

 

We should all get together and send Ya money to help you recover from your loss.

 

My daddy used to say "locks stop only honest people" hope you get your property back undamaged although unlikely.
