OMG someone tried to steal my wheels!
Hey guys, heres the story..
I dropped my car off yesterday at a local paint shop to get the front end repainted (due to body repair) I also recently bought a set of ADR MSPORT wheels that are black with a polished lip. They arent that expesive or nice, just liked the look of them, well, I come back tonight to pick my car back up, without hesitation, I get into the car, start it, and start to drive, within seconds I can feel something is wrong. I get out, look around, and find that my front wheels have only 1 lug bolt. The only one that was left was the wheel locks on the front. I looked back, and the rest of my lug nuts, along with some blocks are on the ground behind me, from where I just left. I imedietly go inside the shop, and start asking questions, of course no one knows what happened. I picked up my lugs, put them back in and drove off.
Its not like my wheels are worth much, its just the fact that someone tried to steal them. I feel violated, and if I found out who it was, I would love to cut off thier hands.
Well, I think im going to get 2 sets of locks, just in case...

someone has a pic in their poster of various lugs. they have those spline drive ones
i think they have a locking kind and a pseudo locking kind (special wrench).
i was gonna rock four of those in addition to the RAD locks.
