My wheels got stolen.

Hoping the other Alaskan SVXers are not all hibernating.

Now with craigslist reward post.

My 4 stock SVX wheels with winters tires got stolen from my house the other day.

They look like this:





The tires are Blizzaks, they only have a couple thousand miles on them.

The chances of SVX wheels being installed on a non-SVX car in this town are 0%. If you see them on a non-SVX car, they are MINE. I know pretty much all of the SVX owners in town and I am (probably) the only one with oversized Blizzaks. There is a red SVX owner in my neighborhood but he doesn't use the SVX forum, so I don't really know him.

Any info at all would be appreciated.

They were stacked up against the front of my garage in semi-plain view, but either someone grabbed them in broad daylight when nobody is here or staked the place out and waited until after 2 am to get'em.

I guess I am just too trusting of people.

Almost forgot I took a picture a day or two earlier of the crime scene.
Pretty inviting, eh?

Yeah, the tweekers here stole the stainless steel pipes off the urinal at the Carl's Jr... Plus my boss chased someone down in his Prius that was trying to cut the catalytic converter out of a car on the lot at my work!
Fuggin tweekers, should just make it legal to shoot them on sight, problem solved :-) Or go round 'em up and send 'em to Iraq, they can steal metal there. (And you know what the Muslims do to theives... First time, finger, second time, hand, third time, head.

Nik, sorry to hear this, some people have no respect.

It wasn't too wise to leave them where you did. It strikes me that whoever stole them may only want the tires. They will probably fit your Blizzaks to something, then sell the rims on eBay.
