Stolen BBS RS reps

[SoundByte]

I get my stuff the honest way. I may not have much but I do sleep well at night.

This. I couldn't have said it better myself.

Such shittiness. Makes me nervous that somebody's gonna steal my shitty curbed-up BBS reps and leave me stranded.

I should buy a few security lug nuts...

Yep !!!! go buy some factory BMW wheel locks. I put them on every BMW i buy. Its worth the $40.00 and the piece of mind.And OP sorry for your loss bro. When you get new wheels,go buy locks. When they see them they will just walk by,its not worth the effort to them at that point. They are looking for a quick steal with little to no effort put into it.

Do factory BMW wheel locks all have individual keys, I need something that no one else has a key too.

[BraveUlysses]

It's just a keyed bolt and they probably make 5-10 variations of the key.

I have never had a problem in the 14 years i have used them on my BMW you see in my pic . ;) I have had real and rep BBS wheels,2 sets of ACS wheels,LTW D-force wheels and no problems.

I've got the same set. Even came with some "Dummy" caps to cover the wheel locks, so they look like normal wheel bolts.

Definitely going to invest in some of these. I'm even a little afraid someone might steal the basketweaves i just put on. Did you just purchase the locking nuts from a BMW dealership?

Damn dude. Tough break.

I've been there...sucks. Best of luck getting justice.

Tip - the discount tire "locking" bolts can be taken off with a standard 17mm socket. Don't waste your money on those.

Also, if you can, pick up an extra key or two for safe keeping in areas where they wont get lost. Not being able to find the wheel key can ruin your whole day.

Thanks man, I really hope so too.

Any recommendations on what brand to buy? I'm definitely going to put locks on my wheels now, even if its just for basketweaves

It seems to me that the job was done by someone who had been following you for awhile, perhaps someone in the same school or a neighbor. They knew exactly where the car was parked at, and knew that the area was not well patrolled.

Can't you ask for help to those with Security Cameras? Everyone has them know. And you know the date/time when the wheels were removed. Maybe they used a pick up truck. Just saying.

Go and get some nice wheels now. And use lock nuts.

The police weren't much of a help. There were no security cameras in that parking lot (no idea how that's possible). UW isn't concerned about parking lot safety at all.
