Default Damit some ahole stole the 17-inch premium wheels

So I went over to my side yard today to grab my bike to go n a ride with my daughter and noticed some frackin dick stole the 17-inch premium polished wheels that came on my stang. I wanted to keep the damn things and had them over in an out of the way corner of the yard till my son's 4-wheeler sold.

Anyone know what those wheels are worth, i don't know if I should look into filing it on my home owners or not. suggestions?

Used? I bet it would cost a bunch more than that to repalce them new. I've never filed a home owners claim before, but when you file an insurance claim its not used prices they give you. i would assume the same woudl be true for home owners right?

I dont think you should file it with your homeowners policy. Those wheels will only cost you about 300 bucks used if your looking on craigslist or ebay or soemthing like that.

Had no idea they were that cheap, i was expecting 1k with the tires and all. pisses me off, but its not worth bothering to even file a report.

I think you can buy them real cheap on newtakeoff.com.

Odd how someone would steal stock wheels.

dude, sorry to hear man. One of the first things I got was wheel locks.. They make a great investment. Well, at least you got an excuse for new wheels.
You might want to file a police report anyways.. in case the thieves get caught stealing someone else in the neighborhood.

I had a set with new P zero Neros on Craigs list for a month and couldn't get $300.00 for them. A lot of scammers but no cash. So look around. I put mine in the shed with a tarp over them. Maybe if I sell the car someday I'll put them back on but I'm not giving them away!

Sorry to hear about that. I sold mine the day I bought my car for $400. They now reside on a dodge van owned by a coworker.
