If you get locking lug nuts and ever sell the car make sure to include them.. recently bought a car with two different locking lug nuts and no keys... so fuck me right.

I'll never understand retards like you. I have had countless people come into my shop for tire maintenance and when I ask for lock keys they don't have them
>I bought the car like that they didn't give me lug keys
Why? Whhhyyy? Do you not look at the wheels when you buy a car? Do you not notice that shit? Are you that stupid? Fuck, you deserve it.

>So someone stole two of my fucking wheels.
>And now I'm having to deal with the fallout from that.

I need new tires.
I steal 2 old ones off a similar car.
The owner replaces them with nice new tires.
I now have 2 nice new tires.
I sell the old ones because they have nice rimz.

>Are locking lug nuts worth it so I'm less likely to have to deal with this bullshit again?

They will make it less likely if you choose the proper ones. As to which are good, which are defeatable with effort, and which ones fail leaving the owner stuff with un-removable lug nuts, well, I forgot the article. It was long ago that I read it. All I remember was that it was a good blog length article with insights and comments about past problems other locking nut users had. The problem one faces is whether or not you can remove your damaged lug nuts.

One insight the article had was that you should not simply hide your lug nut socket inside the trunk of your car. That is the first place they go look since most users toss the tool into the space where they keep the jack and tire nut wrench.

Keep it secret. Keep it Safe.

>I don't know why anyone would want them
They may want your used OEM rims because they match the other used OEM rims they already have. This may be to conceal wheel damage to the car before selling it on CL. After all, non-matching rims are a huge sign there is something wrong with that wheel in the past.

Sometimes, homeless need tires and they will take some used tires that way. It's a frequent problem in the large city to the NW of me which has a large homeless population living in cars. To drive out the homeless from parking in front of their houses, homeowners may

baka desu senpai

I was one of these dumbasses I didn't even know there was such a thing but my wife's passat had one on each wheel. With a little searching though I found the key. Then I got rid of them.

I don't understand why retards don't just keep the keys in their car.

Same here.

I live in a walled-off HOA community. The people there are aggressive about challenging any strangers. Anyone that is hostile, is then asked to leave. Under HOA rules, even if people are "invited" by a resident, if they demonstrate hostility to other property owners, they can be asked to leave community property. The homeowner that invited the guest is responsible for all damages and community expenses caused by their guests. If the hostile people do not leave, we're told to call a member of the board of directors for an official decision and they can decide to ask the police to come remove those people.

Example: Some youths threw trash out the car window (burger king, and a pizza box). The victimized homeowner had it on security camera (he has one of those swann recorder systems). The parents were contacted and denied ANGRILY it was his kids and their guests. The board saw video from multiple angles and was annoyed at lying kids. A lesson needed to be taught. The victom was instructed to not pick it up. The board called the landscaper to make a special visit to pick it up. Yard refuse cleaning fee is $360 per visit and includes one truck bed worth of debris. He removed the pizza box and burger king wrappers. $360 plus tax. Lawyer consultation $300. Evidence recording fee $100. Lawyer letter delivered by courier $80 + $150. All of that applied as lien onto the homeowner's property. LOCKED ON TARGET. Fire Photon Torpedo! SCORE! By the way, besides those charges, it costs money to remove a lien as there are court fees too. It also affects credit rating negatively to have a lien placed on them. Bye bye credit rating.

Moral of the story: HOA keeps riff raff out. If riff raff move in, everyone should attack them with lawyer power and security cams. Like a dash cam, home security cams are good to have too.

No. HOAs are shit.

>paying money to be cucked by normies on a power trip

Put your car on airbags Noone will be able to steal them again.

Install a security system

Best chance you have unless you want an assault charge

Seriously, just wait till he wants to paint his house a decent color, and he can't, because it's not in the HOA approved color code book. O by the way you went on vacation for a week, and it's the summer, and your lawn was a 1/16" too long. So we called the landscaper on the weekend to cut it. That'll be $500.

>Best chance you have unless you want an assault charge

Stealing wheels is the most ghetto thing anyone has ever done. If someone told me they stole wheels, I would legitimately ask them if they live in a pig shed illegally.

Nah
If they can't take your wheels, they'll just take the car instead.

I have a set of project mu lug nuts. That's five heptangle lugs. Can't just hammer on a size smaller, and if you do manage it you have to do it 20 times. Well worth the $100 for the set.

Looked those up and the concept looks pretty interesting. I like how you can get them with various coloured tops. I wouldn't dare because anything flashy means my car becomes a thief magnet. Every Jamal that passes by on a bike scouting mission will call their friends that they found a new target for that night's raid for things to sell off.

Project Mu lug nuts are made and sold by chinese makers on both AliExpress and Alibaba. So that means the ebay sellers are probably selling chinese clones of project mu lug nuts too. The official distributors of these japanese parts for the english market is www.mackin-ind.com

>they'll just take the car instead.

Due to the steep rise in battery costs, car battery thefts are somewhat common here. It's not helped by salvage companies offering money for used batteries. Or it's rather clever of those companies getting batteries cheaply for re-manufacturing (open, clean up, replace acid & new plates, seal back up).

Or 'your car looks dirty, wash it right now'.

Cringed at the end my autistic weeb

My HOA used to be pretty great, desu, but then it became shit when we got new neighbors and they all cliqued together and cucked us hard.

Pretty much this.

My advice is to live in a neighborhood with obvious racist old timers. Had a couple of military vets, retired cops, etc. in my last neighborhood. Vietnam vet chased off a black mormon while calling him a nigger. See, that's how that HOA used to be good.

Anybody who really wants your wheels can get them easily as stated. Got my tires done a while back and they lost my key. It was going to take a month or so to get a matching key so I said fuck that and replaced the locks with standard lugnuts. All you do is take a 12pt socket and hammer it on to the lock and it will grip it enough to break it loose

All that hammering makes a lot of noise at night. The owner should be up and at them by then if not the neighbors calling the police.

Rubber deadblow

Being this cucked

HOA is incredibly anti-liberty, and I'm not a fan of living in Communist Russia.

>HOA is incredibly anti-liberty,
You sound like Black Lives Matter whenever wrongdoers are apprehended and punished. Throwing trash out of the car and then boldly lying about it is bad. Their attitude of impunity makes it worse. The perpetrators refused to own up to their actions. That's what escalated the problem and got the HOA involved.

The perps basically had the attitude "there ain't nothing you can do to stop us throwing trash in your yard and you can't make us pick it up even though it is on video". That is a riff raff attitude. It's a hit and run type attitude of doing something wrong and then running away and if confronted, continuing to deny all responsibility. Hit and Run attitude.

Homeless are able to park in front of other people's homes up to 72 hours. Then they move it 30 or so feet and live there some more. But they can't do that in our HOA area. It takes an HOA to stop BLM from lounging around your neighborhood waiting for everyone to go to work. Package delivery and mail theft is a problem in non HOA areas.

Get rust.

Read; I live in a cucked police state where I have to pay a retarded fee to some fatass fuckwit to sit on his ass all day and collect fines because the developer couldn't be assed to make the streets regulation width for the county. Enjoy never working on your own car at your own house that YOU pay for ever again.

You literally just made all of that up/live in Baltimore/Don't own a gun

And nothing about that warrants cucking yourself into HOA servitude and jewry. Police your OWN property, not mine. And If I get a faggot 'fine' from your ass I'm throwing it through your window tied to a burning can of gas and styrofoam. Oh, my lawn isn't EXACTLY as you like it? I have too many cars? Why wasn't I at the meeting last month? Stop working on my truck at 3AM? Why don't you take this nice fresh pail of used oil, and drink it instead you fat useless jew-faced fuck?

>Living around niggers

Haha, OP, c'mon you should know better.

There are blacks. There are niggers that are different. There's plenty of blacks who make a decent living and are upset at how niggers create a bad stereotype for all black people in general.

But you should know better. There is no way to avoid niggers in a democracy with a bill of rights and BLM and the NAACP fighting for their right to walk, ride, lounge around wherever they want. Only a strong HOA can keep them out of a neighborhood.

Otherwise, rims and tires and batteries keep getting stolen. Or your racks get removed by homeless wanting to sell them as scrap aluminum or to a fence who then puts them up on ebay.

Like rats, they wander thru your suburb neighborhood while everyone is at work. They pick up accessible loot and then leave.

>So someone stole two of my fucking wheels.
Was there any type of suspicious activity in your area? Or you live in a normally bad area where suspicious people are able walk around and case your car all the time?

I live in Baltimore, what are you on about? The homeless here do not own cars, that's for sure. They just stand all strung out holding signs on the median at major intersections. The cops just busted a large congregation in the woods on my way to work. I'd see the most run down looking people walking out of the bushes there.

Just move out of town. I would rather have a ten mile drive to get anywhere than to be cucked my hoa or have my shit stolen.

>I live in Baltimore
Aaaaand there's your problem. You wouldn't have nearly as much of a problem with BLM parking bums or package thieves if you didn't live in a shit town. If you can afford an HOA area home, you can afford to move to a not-shit town and just commute for business/pleasure.

>If someone told me they stole wheels, I would legitimately ask them if they live in a pig shed illegally.

You better not say that around BLM activists. They file hate crime lawsuits even for one sentence. It doesn't matter if you get convicted because now you have a hate crime lawsuit on your public record. It costs them nothing since it is federal money, but you have to spend money on lawyers to deny you said such a thing under the hate crime law. If you committed a hate crime, you can be punished and even lose your job.

>tfw you live in a white suburb where the biggest crime issue is people not cutting their lawn

Feels white man

I used to live in a mexican apartment complex. one night a whole section of honda cars wheels got taken off. Most of them were stance fag fart box civics, and integras. IIRC the kind of wheels they took were knock off bbs and cheap rotas. I think only one of them (stancefaggots) had a legit stock wheel.

worst part was my neighbor (some 50 year old white lady) had her completely stock civic wheels stolen. I guess since they weren't steelies they figured why not.

>>tfw you live in a white suburb where the biggest crime issue is people not cutting their lawn

It is a great feeling to not have that constant fear of crime right outside my door. I don't want to get mugged just standing next to my car.

>tfw you live in a white suburb where the biggest crime issue is people not cutting their lawn

White Flight only partially works. Dindu come to your upscale neighborhood and then loiter around waiting for you to get home and open your garage door.

In Sanford, Florida, the place of Trayvon Martin, the mayor of Sanford (who had defended Trayvon) was robbed at gunpoint of his money, house keys, and carjacked (GTA) of his mercedes SUV by THREE dindu. BLM includes Damarcus Jesse Paige (17 years old) and Jermine Jacques Horne (18).

On the police report:
"""On June 25, 2016, at approximately 0214 hours, three black males, later identified as Jermine Jacques Horne, Damarcus Jesse Paige and approached victim, Jeffrey Carl Triplett while Triplett was standing outside the residence of 110 Chapman Avenue, Sanford, Seminole County, Florida.

Triplett stated one of the three subjects put one firearm in Triplett’s mouth and another subject put one firearm in Triplett’s ear.

Triplett stated he was ordered to the ground and his keys were taken after one of the subjects stated “I will kill you” and demanded Triplett’s vehicle keys.

The above subjects also stole Triplett’s wallet containing $300.00 U.S. currency, driver license, two (2) credit cards, bank card and City of Sanford Mayor’s badge. The subjects then fled the driveway of the above residence in Triplett’s 2012 Mercedes-Benz ML350 """

During the chase, the SUV was wrecked by the three black youths who immediately fled. Two were apprehended but the 3rd got away. They both pleaded INNOCENT despite being apprehended at the crash and after the mayor identified them and of course there were a LOT of witnesses to the chase.

No shame at all. Pleading innocent after all that. They claim there was no intent to kill the victim. If they are proven innocent, that implies the victim instigated the robbery!

Claimed at police check-in to be juvenile and for lenient treatment under juvenile protection laws

Wanna bet BLM will fight for his right to be leniently treated as juvenile despite his age? Would it be an "affluenza approach" such as the racist system kept him down, so he never was educated or trained to be anything but a juvenile! Thus he should be leniently treated so that his future potential as a human being can be realized. He should not be forced into becoming a negative statistic. Your Honor, the system has a chance here to do the right thing because Black Lives Do Matter. Please do not force him into the path of becoming yet another bad statistic. If you do that, it is on you not him and the voters will hear of it.

So, they didn't target alloy rims from GM and Ford cars? They only went after Honda rims?

Would that be due to Honda street racers needing to keep mounted and pressurized tires on spare rims so they can swap them in and out for racing and then for normal DD?

>So someone stole two of my fucking wheels. And now I'm having to deal with the fallout from that.

Car lots have thieves come by to steal wheels. Below is a quote from a recent news story at: thetruthaboutcars.com/2016/08/dealership-wheel-theft-turns-deadly-ohio/

Opportunistic thieves are making off with high-end wheels from dealer lots more than ever, but one Ohio man’s nighttime excursion at a General Motors dealer just cost him his life.

Employees at Ron Marhofer Buick GMC opened their Canton, Ohio dealership per usual on Saturday morning, not knowing that a 43-year-old man lay dead under one of their Yukons.

According to the Canton Repository, the man, identified as Richard E. Ritch, was killed as he attempted to remove the first of the Yukon’s wheels at some point the previous night. The county coroner’s office claims the SUV fell off the jack and impacted his head, crushing him.

In a gruesome twist, the dealership was open for hours before the man’s body was discovered at about noon. Sales manager Kyle Green said a sales associate only noticed the body when a vehicle blocking their view of the man drove away.

While the grisly discovery was “obviously shocking,” according to Green, the dealership stayed open and sales continued. The service department checked over the Yukon for damage. Likely, the new owner won’t have a clue of the vehicle’s brief, but shocking, history.

This attempted theft looks like a one-man crime of opportunity, but other dealers face organized teams of wheel snatchers. Stolen wheels are usually offered for half price on the black market.

>Are locking lug nuts worth it so I'm less likely to have to deal with this bullshit again?

As with door locks, bicycle locks, car door locks, the locking lug nuts will deter casual thieves. It also stops "opportunistic crime" where someone passing by decides to give it a try just because they can. Door locks, bike locks, and locking lug nuts won't stop the hardcore thief. But most thieves are not hardcore thieves. So that is why locked doors and bike locks work for the most part. Certainly no one is giving up locking their house or car doors despite those not stopping a determined thief. I am sure locking lug nuts will follow the same line.

For example, look at how a crime of opportunity goes down in the dashcam picture sequence at archive.4plebs.org/o/thread/15523000/#q15523000 . Your locking lug nuts would stop a situation where someone just happens to park next to you in the theatre parking lot and think, nice rims, let's get them now. They know you're not coming out for awhile because people only come out in infrequent waves at those places. So even with manual tools, they can get it done fast enough.

If people can steal catalytic converters from parking lots, then they can surely at least do rims.

>If people can steal catalytic converters from parking lots, then they can surely at least do rims.

There are very quiet 12v air compressors that refill harbor freight air tanks. Use those with quiet air wrenches, and it is actually doable even at night.

The amateurs use a torch to cut. That's too obvious. Cats are cut from the exhaust tubing with a nice quiet chain cutter. It has cutting wheels similar to what you've seen on a big tubing cutter but the circular cutting blades are on a chain with a handle. So it looks very much like an oil filter wrench. Instead of tightening your tool around an oil filter, you tighten it around the pipe. Wiggle the handle back and forth and the cutting starts. No sparks, loud noises, fire, or power tools. You just need to be able to get under the car so that means cars with higher suspensions.

amazon.com/Exhaust-Tailpipe-Chain-Type-Cutter/dp/B000GHV6V4

Get a different set of locking lug nuts for every bolt.

Try not to park in a place that is too easy to steal from. When you replace the missing wheels, those new tires might be tempting to someone.

t. Takashi Sato

You can zip through an exhaust pipe with a cordless sawzall in about 10 seconds, and that's what most thieves do. Used to get Tacomas and 4Runners in with the cats stolen all the time when I worked at Toyota

>my car sounded loud this morning when I started it and the check engine light came on

>Rich E. RIch

Seriously

Reminds me in San Francisco about 10 years ago people stealing copper and other metals out of buildings was really rampant (one of the favorites being the brass fire fighter fittings on the side of skyscrapers), they found one guy with almost nothing left but his shoes and jewelry, he tried to cut through a super high voltage service box and was turned into charcoal. I also read that in Colombia manhole cover theft is so rampant that people die all the time falling into the holes or crashing into them on scooters/motorcycles.

Hook up a taser to your wheels or move to a better neighborhood.

I used to have a set of these RS Watanabe magnetic wheel locks. Best ones I've seen. They have a sleeve that spins freely that can only be unlocked with a magnetic specially shaped key.

Too bad I can't find them anymore. This was back in 2010-2011

Whatever type of anti-theft wheel lug nuts I get, I want them to be vandal resistant. There are hooligan kids around here that would try to vandalize them to make the lug nuts unremovable.

Part of the subculture here considers security to be racist. So if you have a lot of security, you get labeled by them as trying to keep them out and therefore you are racist. Sure, that sounds illogical, but there's a lot of hatred of crackers trying to go overboard on security and "be insulting us".

>Those who defy the social order must have their lives thoroughly ruined

If you're ever like this, don't ever bother wondering why someone snuck past that monogrammed gate and stole your wheels. You're seen as the scum of society, just a richer, more connected version of the common riffraff. There's no difference between a kid keying your car to teach you a lesson in parking and a HOA nanny trying to collect as many fines and exert as many punishments as possible for people not tickling THEIR fancy. HOA types are the reason tumblr thinks white people are still oppressing everyone (because tumblrinas all live in HOAs like spoiled brats anyways).

>HOA types are the reason tumblr thinks white people are still oppressing everyone (because tumblrinas all live in HOAs like spoiled brats)

Your logic is half-baked BLM logic. You sure like to blame the victim for crime. Just like the standard Black Lives Matter playbook that tries to make the victim feel guilty. Sure, BLM feels threatened by homeowners putting up sturdy fences and getting dogs. BLM also hates alarms and security guards.

Activists from Black Lives Matter are active in our city. They say the crime rate is a result of discrimination. BLM says crime is not the fault of oppressed blacks. They blame statistics as inaccurate.

We've heard it before over and over in arguments at the city committees dealing with homelessness and the crime. The blacks feel very offended and threatened at homeowners putting up security systems or abandoning neighborhoods to move to HOA areas. They almost said that homeowners who move away should be charged with racism. Yes, they actually have this kind of logic. BLM says when you put up fences, security lights, and bar your doors against having them kicked in, you invite and encourage crime.

It's too bad that it was crime that caused people to have alarms and not the other way around. The criminals feel threatened by alarms, dogs, and armed homeowners.

It's too bad that it was crime that caused people to bar doors. It's too bad that it was the crime that caused HOA, not the other way around. It's too bad that armed violence by nigs (not blacks) caused white flight.

Keep on blaming the victim, bro, you're doing a good job for Black Lives Matter.

>don't ever bother wondering why someone snuck past that monogrammed gate and stole your wheels.
That's BLM logic. It's the victim's fault.

Lol not locking nuts from the first day. You deserved it.

When you're destroying someone financially or record-wise over a pizza box you've gone beyond all reason. It's not a cop fearing for his life then, it's a pissy nu-aristocrat fearing for what his neighbor might think about his now less than perfect lawn.

It's the exact same thing as a gangster shooting someone for "disrespect" instead of just punching him or something.

"Have a hospital bill muthafucka, right in the arm. Anyone else wanna call me a sucka?"

Disproportionate and unwarranted punishment when not under the threat of death or physical harm is indefensible, primitive behaviour.

You're fixated on BLM because you relate to those cop-shooting fucks.

>disrespect?
>ARMS OUT

They deliberately made the mess. It was not accidental.
They refused to clean it up when given the opportunity.

They denied they did it.
They threw away yet another opprotunity for redemption.

They were boldly angry about it.
They were not apologetic.
They said the victim was a liar.
Yet another opportunity squandered by the perps.

They exhibited righteous indignation and stressed their innocence.
They had the viewpoint you can't prove it. This is classic DINDU.

Since they refused to clean up their mess, someone else cleaned it up for them and charged them their official cleaning fee.
They refused to pay any cleaning fee.

Thus the fee went to debt collection. That is all fair for unpaid debts. Dindu typically say debts should be forgiven by rich people (free money).

They ignored debt collection, so lawyers got involved and the matter went to court. This is a common Dindu problem.

A judge reviewed the validity of the cleaning fee and judged it was legally applied. The judge reviewed evidence and concluded it was definite proof. The court made a ruling and a lien was placed upon the homeowner property. It is jointly owned so both homeowners have a +$1000 USD lien on their credit rating records.

I don't know much more other than the homeowners quickly settled their overdue debts. A house can be foreclosed as soon as 120 days, and the residents have 20 days to vacate after which a sheriff deputy will come and say they have to leave that instant. Any property in the house is then immediately moved to curbside and is LEGALLY declared as open property (anyone may take it, the former owner may not prevent you). That is because that property legally became abandoned property one second after the 20 day mark.

I'm not making up post foreclosure stories. Too much of this happened during the Bush years as you should have already known unless you went LOL TLDR to those published stories of woe where the sheriff forcibly moved people out.

Hey, OP
Are you going to try the theft-resistant lug nut approach?

And which type are you using? key-lock type? or special wrench-fitting type?

snap on, mac and matco sell extractor sockets for these. Takes no time at all to remove. Best bet is to buy splined lug nuts that come with a socket 1 cunt hair bigger than the lug nut. And wheels with holes drilled 2 cunt hairs bigger than lug nut.

>No. HOAs are shit.

They work very well for informed owners who will never need to do anything outside guidelines, and you can always get involved in the HOA to influence it.

Walled communities are wonderful for keeping out human garbage.

I live in a rural area and have preferences which exclude HOAs for me, but my neighbors and I are well armed racist rednecks and we are left WELL alone.

>Seriously, just wait till he wants to paint his house a decent color, and he can't, because it's not in the HOA approved color code book.

He knew the rules going in. His color desire isn't important. Uniformity is. If you can afford HOA lifestyle you can afford paid landscaping while you are away.

Dis.

easiest way is to take a old socket and hammer the cunt on there but yeah there are multipe ways

a smart thief would have all the common keys anyway.

i like locking nuts i think they look cool but basically useless

I've got a dual battery setup in my landcruiser and have had the bonnet popped and the batteries lifted twice now.

Shit fucking sucks.

Clearly you don't stand nigger rationale on property and economics. You don't own those wheels unless you can prevent their theft. You do, however, own any wheels which you yourself can steal. So go steal some yourself - although, the crowd that steals probably is never at work, so you'll have a harder time.

Did they do any other damage?

I'm lucky no one stole my two batteries yet. One is under the hood and the other is in the trunk. They are the sealed type.

My batteries are $300 jobbers from the dealer. But that is assuming the crooks don't cause any damage such as cutting wires going to the posts.

Someone needs to design a system that if senses your wheels are being untorqued without a condition being met, would spray burning fuel out the side of that specific wheel like that Audi or BMW that prevents car jackers.

IDK why more active theft prevention systems haven't been made, this is actually a good system. It not only protects property, but lowers crime in the long run.

But it raises healthcare costs because you know DeJ'Marcus isn't paying for his own trip to the burn unit.
