You should have serial numbers for each wheel. Call the place that you purchased them from and get that info...

Here are the pics.

The kicker is that the trailer was parked for one day while in transit.

4ramin - tks for the serial number note as I didn't think there would be a serial number....will post

The wheels are HRE M47's.

At what point does Weistec take some responsibility for these thefts? If they know this is common at their location, shouldn't cameras be installed or customers be cautioned. I bet they didn't warn you about the previous theft.

In my opinion, if Weistec didn't sufficiently advise you of the potential for theft, considering the chance of theft is very high there, then they are negligent.

Sounds to me like wolves are guarding the hen house.

Of course I knew about the previous theft. I speak to Weistec on a weekly basis and to Jim almost on a daily basis.

It is not about assessing blame, it is about the idiots who broke into our trailers.

Serial number on the two wheels is OE1840.

Damn man sorry to hear that. Since this thread will probably be a hot topic I suggest you update your first post with new information (e.g. the serial numbers). As the thread grows people will miss that extra information hidden within.

Good luck!

easy 10k, id camp in the trailer for a bit, make a little bed.

Realistically, you wont catch the guys, even if you find the wheels, the guy who has them could get charged with stolen property, but you have to prove he knew it was stolen.

Very difficult crime to go after, unless there is video evidence or finger prints on the inside of the trailer.. pigs not going to spend time on that, too busy writing speeding tickets and the war on drugs lol.

Be on the look out for two rear black HRE Racing wheels.

$10,00 cash for information leading to an arrest.

Hate to say it but most times you know the person who robs you.
We just had $$ Tools & Toolbox disappear, turned out to be a boy friend of someone who was house setting the house.
He ultimately only got caught because she got pissed at him and turned him in. Got 80% of the stuff back.

Agreed, very tough. Buddy of mine set up a sting to catch the guys selling his stolen parts on CL. They showed up, cops nabbed them, they said they found the parts lying on the side of the road and had no idea. They got off eventually. Not bringing this up to be negative, bringing it up to share, in the event you do get the opportunity to catch them, you need to get more than just possession of the property.
