The other day after washing my car I returned to my appartment to find my storage cage in the under ground secure car park had been broken into, and all 4 17" Advan RG's were stolen. They also all had new rubber on them :D.

I had them in there as I was going to get them re-rolled after an accident I had with them. Three of them need re-rolling and one of those three is cracked and buckled. I did however find a place which could fix that crack and re-roll them for me and I was looking forward to doing that.

If anyone sees any Gold 17" Advan RG's around for sale could they let me know.

that sucks, but at least they were stolen before you fixed them....would have been worse if you had spent the $$ to get them fixed and then they were stolen...

haha, the thieves probably thought they were getting mint condition mags, they'll get a shock later on :D

Does your bodycorp insurance cover any theft from the carpark?

That was gonna be my qn too as it's kinda on "common property" down there, although on a techincality, it may be considered your property being the apartments storage area.

Being out of sight, there's a fair chance the thief MAY be an associate of resident in your block.

There was a burgular in the apartments next to my work last week.

Followed a car in through rolladoor, disarmed door panel so he didn't get locked in, sprayed paint over camera lenses & broke into the cars in the underground car park.

OMG Mic,

So sorry to hear this seeing as I used to live in the same building and we used to park next to each other.

Their were some guys in my section of the building that used to admire my car and were obviously aware of japanese cars. They were always checking out my car when I pulled up and had talked to me about it a couple of times. They would be the only suspects I could think of and I don't really want to point the finger either. I would do a door knock and flyer drop, I would also suggest you look into my section of the building the second yellow door at the front where the entrance to apartment 24 & 25 are.

My storage container was right next to yours and I stored all my stock parts and 4 x S15 rims with tyres and 4 x S14 rims with tyres and spare tread. This would suggest it would be someone new to the building because if they had been living there previously they would've stolen all my stuff as well.

best bet would be to do the idea Kam said... put a flyer in the window or make those shops aware that stolen property might cross their path... They have to fix them or they're useless to them. Plus selling damaged rims gets you a very little return. At least they wont make money out of this... the pieces of shit that they are

.... they weren't on the car?

How sure of that are you?

Now, let's suppose one of the theives knew a thing or two about cars.

Is it not possible that they saw that one was damaged, and decided to see if they rolled right?

Is it not possible that they decided to do so by trying them on a car?

Is it not possible that they chose the nearest available (i.e. yours)

Is it not possible that they happened to have a tyre iron with them (they had to pry their way intot the secure cage somehow)

Is it not possible that they put the rims on the car, just to make sure that they rolled right, and fit on the car properly?

Therefore, is it not possible that you would, in fact be covered by insurance?

Of course, it's also possible that the rims were never taken off the car, but infact were stolen from the car itself. :unsure:

    • Ha ha ha, that's fair mate! We have the crackhead dogs now. Mainly because the missus wants the crazy dogs while she still has the energy and capacity to be able to keep up with them! Ha ha our current two are both Working GSD, there brothers and sisters (from the same litters) are in Police, Corrective Services, and I believe one did end up in defence force too. They're wild and fun, yet right now, both curled up asleep on the lounge room floor while we watch some TV. Mal is very likely the next dog (unless I get my couch potato guardian dog 😛 )   What are your Kitties names? Are you planning some house work, like those high kitty shelves, built in scratching post, and some cat passages from one room to another room?
    • Maine Coone, did look at but to big and fluffy As for performance dogs, we had Mals at work, performance dogs are fun to watch, but, way to much work for this old rooster
    • Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.
    • You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛
    • Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.
