No I didn't know the tires were mounted onto the wheels. I didn't add them.

By the way I have wheel locks, so how did they manage to break my locks?????

Sacrificed a socket. Real easy to do.

The tires are slashed because the car is sitting on the ground. How could it be on the ground if the tires aren't slashed?

IF they stole your wheels like you said, I wholeheartedly doubt they'd take the time to unmount them (yet alone the free tires).

While I could have believed they did this over $200, I lose alot of trust with the stolen wheels but slashed tire bit.

As far as the $15k goes, I am willing to bet 1/2 of that is the 500 CD's, the wheels (18" are rice on a maxima btw) are probably the other 1/2.

Your HID's and Wing is rice....

What is not rice? do you have anything that makes you car faster?

Um, you wouldn't exactly be driving around (past tense) if the tires *weren't* mounted to the wheels. That's kinda a requirement to not be seeing sparks flying from the car when driving down the road. Where else do the tires mount, on the hood?

wheel locks will not stop a pro. esp if just one are on each wheel. If you use one of the popular types chances are the theif will have the 'key' in hand.

Same with car door locks, pros have the master key set. Even an alarm with starter kill can be bypassed.

My wing isn't rice. It is the same type of spoiler a stock Maxima comes with but it is 1" higher. It is just a spoiler that is an inch higher. No my mods are bascially stereo, etc. It was a gxe that was transferred into basically a gle (leather, wood steering wheel, etc.), turned the interior to black from tan. Wasted my money when I was younger basically.
Performance mods? none.
HIDs aren't rice. How could you call HIDs rice when all new cars basically come with them.

As for my tires slashed, guys it's night I really didn't see so I have no idea what I am talking about. I'll take pictures in the morning, I'll go look now with a flashlight. I wrote this shaking, I am still shaking because I am furious. I never thought this could happen to me.

I'm confused. If they took your wheels your tires would gone too. Not slashed.

Gotcha. You have full coverage?

So even if it was at night, it couldn't be hard to figure out of your tires were there or not. If they were there and slashed then the "my wheels (18's)" is false, if they were not there then the "they slashed my tires" is false, easy as that.

someone stole my emblems..

i either have to buy a new emblem, or cover up the holes where it was attached and match it with some touchup paint.

ok, only two of my wheels/tires were stolen. My spoiler was not stolen but they tried , maybe not enough time? Maybe to make a point? That doesn't make any sense to me.

No glass broken (car was locked) and I guess the alarm didn't work and even if it did it wouldnt make a difference I live in the woods. I see glass inside the car however and I cannot find out where it came from.

Still no police.

hahahaha

suspicious bunch we have here huh??

so mb his description isn't exactly accurate, that doesn't mean it didn't happen, it just means he's very excited and upset. accuracy is not exactly of utmost importance to someone in that state of mind.

as to those that say he deserved it because he didn't pay his friend the $200.00,


just because someone owes you money, it does not give you the right to do that kind of damage.

They stole my emblems, my wheels (18's), stole my cd-player, dvd player, clear corners, they tried to take my spoiler (It's a type-II wing for the Maxima), they stole my CDs (over 500), My sub + amp, they slashed my tires, they key'd my trunk (THANKS DUDE) , they stole my HIDs by ripping the damn thing out, and I really don't know if they stole anything else.. my leather is destroyed they cut it..

Whoever did this knew I wasn't home.. I live in a private neighborhood with only 2 other houses.

Blah, I am pissed just wanted to rant.


1998 Maximas dont have hids. Only 2k2 and up have HIDS..

oh, you mean those illegal aftermarket ones..

dude, that sucks.

Not accurate? Did you read all of the posts? Some of it makes hardly any, if not, NO sense.

I dont think 18s on a maxima are rice.. On many maximas its only an inch larger and a 40 series profile tire, down from the 50 series the car comes with.

That's brutal. But I have a question - how did they slash the tires but take the wheels? They didn't dismount the tires did they?

*EDIT* Just read thread. So, aimster, as I understand it you went outside and quickly checked damage, then came here to post, without first confirming that only TWO of your wheels had been stolen, and they slashed the other two? That just doesn't make sense, man.

If your car is vandalized you're gonna check to see the exact damage and know exactly what's going on, then your first response about the wheels was like "WTF, you have to mount tires?", Truly you're making no sense. Tires are attached to wheels. Unless you dismount them ( you won't if you're stealing set ) the tires will go along with the stolen wheels.

$200 for this? Sure - I've heard of a guy who tried to shoot his son over their team losing a football game. But, if you'd paid back $2300 of the $2500 why would a friend suddenly now try and do this?
