I think it’s around 10,6xx now. I ordered and bought it brand new last September, took delivery October 2019

Look very close to ware they jacked up your car. Could be some more serious damage to the underbody.My grind wheels were stolen and they smashed the floor board under the car . Seats and interior had to be removed to get everything back in line under there.

Yes I plan on inspecting it closely underneath. I know of every blemish on the car so I am sure I will see anything new

Not that I know of. I didn’t hear anything (I was asleep obviously) and the car remote started like normal a few minutes prior to me walking out the door (my typical morning routine)

With todays battery operated tools it’s very easy to accomplish bad things today over many years ago very quickly.
Alone, this old guy used a jack and a battery powered impact last week. CHANGED four wheels in less than 60 min, including busting them loose with a cheater before jacking, removing and replacing and then using a torque wrench on all 20 nuts. Time even includes putting everything back in place and ready for dinner. You give me a jack, cheater and/or a more powerful battery impact and one wheel I am responsible for and that sucker is off and into the back of a waiting vehicle in less than 60 seconds easy.

Did you have any lock nut’s on it to make it even a little more difficult for them??

I always put 20 locks on my wheels.

Yeah I’m sure with 2-3 guys they were done in 10-15 minutes max!

And no I didn’t have any locking lugs. I don’t see a point because they can still be taken off. Especially with the easily available stripped lug tools available now a days

Regardless, I am with @Paladin06. I have a set of 20 for one set and even another set for the Triumph wheels that Biz sent me. Both of those wheel sets have real difficult skinny holes that require the real thin key sockets. Might as well make it as big as a PIA as we can.

Yeah I’m with you on that! I’ve had wheels with locks taken off my car back in the day and swapped with some steel wheels (couple of buddies thought it would be funny to switch my wheels one night)

How does nobody see this happening where you live? Sorry
Someone saw it... just did nothing about it.


That is some F-up sh*t right there. That is the kind of crap you see here! Sorry this happened to you. Is there any cameras in the area you could check?

As professional as these guys were they have all the lock keys and sockets that any tire shop would have.Big screw driver takes off any McGard wheel lock. If they want it it is as good as gone.

Man that takes balls. I cant even imagine trying that considering where it was parked. They obviously had a lookout but still that takes big ones.
