2013 Chevy truck. The replacement rims and tires were almost $5000 from a dealership.
I think I've narrowed down the suspects. Where were Brian Harris and Ross Downing last night?

Have the cops come dust your car for prints. Maybe they can run them and get a match.

Can take them all off in less than ten minutes.
Remove lugs.
Then Jack up rear end, remove back tires.
Jack up front remove front wheels.

You can't have nice things apparently.

Dealership wheels cost a damn fortune.

And FWIW, I've seen this happen to 3 different vehicles at my complex in south lafayette over the last 2 years.

This happened to a friend about a year ago. Walked outside to his Denali on blocks. FYI, he lives across from CCL on Highland

Maybe if your sig pic didn't glorify the thug life, this wouldn't have happened...

Prints are likely tainted with fried chicken grease.

No, never even once crossed my mind...

My guess is it was tree huggers. There has been a rash of these crimes by those guys. Stealing tires off of gas guzzling SUVs to fight there cause.

Just a heads up, gorilla lugs are a BITCH to get off. With an air chisel it takes 30 minutes a wheel. If they are recessed its nearly impossible.
As for time, wuth a cross tire tool and a floor jack one guy could do it in under five minutes if he was hustling.
Only takes me 10-15 to rotate mine.
Gorilla lugs FTW
Also...I would seriously consider getting insurance to pay replacement costs on oem, and tge replace with stock looking adr or tsw wheels. They are non trashlooking and light enough to net you an extra mpg or two.

Overreact much?

When NOPD is down almost 500 men they just don't have the man power to be as viable as they need to be. Just not enough cops on the street these days.
