i think that you need a receipt as proof for starters, and then i guess a police report would help (if you reported them stolen)?

sorry about the lack of info, but this happened to my g/f (wheels got stolen) and she needed a receipt for proof of purchase.

curious... what rims are they?

Dude, sorry to hear that.

How did they get stolen? During the night, parked on the street? Did you have the special lock-nuts on them?

Hope they didn't cost too much. Less than your insurance excess?

I haven't had experience with this, but common sense dictates that you should report it to police, not because they will do jack $hit, but to get the formal report, and then contact eBay with a copy and the seller's details.

Most likely you won't get the wheels back but hopefully it will damage the seller's reputation. Something at least. I'm sure you need a credit card to be an eBay seller, so eBay should have all their personal details.

The question is, how do you prove they are yours? Are they distinctive enough to do it on photos alone?

Yeah, you need receipts and preferably any photos of your car with the wheels on them.

But I really like R-Spec's idea... just "buy" them off him, although he will want to deliver them most likely instead of having people actually meet him.

Please post the link.

dont even bother buying them.

1 - send him a message on ebay asking if you can inspect the wheels.

2 - turn up (with friends) and tell him they're yours, and you will have cops there shortly if needed

3 - take the wheels.

4 - if he gives you any grief, deal with him appropriately.

although most of us will probably go to step 4 a bit earlier in the game :/

but first MAKE SURE they are definately your wheels.

he probably lives in a crap run down house with holden parts all in his front yard lol.

but im happy to tag along and give someone some much needed pain.

(sounds like my karate lessons could come in handy after all :/ )

i think the seller would probly want to post yea??

if not yea i'm in to go 'collect' with you and who ever else!!!

we'll make a SAU vic day trip out of it maybe??????

hmmm it's shit what they did... goodluck with the rest... i think helps all around if needed :/

That sucks. I don't think there's anything you can do without proof that they're yours. Beat him/her up and you'll end up charged with assault. :/ Unless you go check it out, beat him/her up so hard that they get amnesia or something and take the wheels while you're at it. :/

Ebay has a reporting feature but that would most likely just end up with the item removed and them selling it elsewhere.

Why can't the cops do anything?

Ask for inspection or pickup of the item and win it.

Then make sure he leaves you positive feedback on ebay before after you take the rims for free (using your preferred negotiation technique :/) lol

show us a link of the rims on ebay?

and yea if they yours if u got a picture of them of course if they got same tyre brand on them have some friends with some swords and guns and stuff and take them back and say never steal anything or u know what you gonna deal with next time hahahaha lol :P:D:ninja::D

theives should be dealt with correctly.. and i mean.. wrists and fingers broken :D or even a nice hammering to the back of their hands (casino style)

If i were u ferah.. find where they live and make sure they cant scratch their balls and piss out of a straw for the next 6 months!

would've been a good idea to get your license no stamped on the rims somewhere i guess

but doubt theres much chance of you getting them back..

+1 what rims were they and whats the ebay link

maybe this guy just found a photo of your car with the same rims and is using that..

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
