@ ~$2k for those wheels each, plus the tires... yeah, there would be people willing to buy them and the tires on them at a "discounted" price.

Wheel locks are useless if the person is determined enough.

if you can afford a GT-R I would think you could afford wheel locks and a heated garage to store it was well.

seems like someones trying to be baller but isn't, kinda like driving a GT-R and living in an apartment complex, or the ghetto.

and park a $90k car on the curb. . .

if I'm driving to see a friend and going to have to park on the curb, I'm not driving anything I don't want getting stolen to begin with.

This isn't a hand crafted Ferrari - it's a Nissan.

Thats the owners own fault. I wont even park my 240 on the street in Queens, for him to expect his GT-R not to get fucked with was just foolish.

i would assume because it would take more time than they would want to risk, i mean with an impact gun taking off the wheels is like a 2 minute ordeal, taking the brakes off is a little bit more involved

not really with an sawsall.... anyone who's very mechanically inclined could have them off fairly quickly.

That being said, its really a shame people are doing this... its always the same low income ghetto people too.

They should start cutting off fingers as punishment instead of useless jail time
