It doesn't cost anything, and it proves you are the owner in the event of having to prove they are yours and not some degenerate douchenozzle.

good idea, so what do you tell the guys before they start taking the tires off that you put it in there so they dont think you stole them?

Yes. And be sure to make them big enough as I forgot that I made them too small and they went unnoticed.

Just do a 3x5 card and throw that ***** in there.

I got these stickers on ebay a while ago I forgot I had them, there on my tool locker, maybe if you put them on the rear windows (one that dont open) people might get the hint lol

Do you have an additional policy on your car to cover the wheels? I ask because some carriers would only cover OEM wheels, and not aftermarket wheels like the Vossens. Either way, glad they were covered, just curious.

The best or nothing
Every thief should be shot immediately. But don't be sorry for your loss,you get new,better ones.. it just sucks because some people are ****ed up.. do not care about money.. recently, I lost about 4.000.000 EUR in a hostile company takeover. Of course I care about the money but not as much about the people that I trusted.

If someone on here gets those to do what you're saying, I predict their cars gets messed with in a very short period of time. Those do nothing except incite jealousy. People already think that the people that drive a Mercedes are arrogant douches. That sticker screams arrogant douche. Bad idea.

Dude Gus,

Just browsing the forums and saw your thread. So sorry to hear about what these low-lifes did to your ride. I didn't even get a chance to see those wheels. Hope everything works out. Glad you've got a good attitude about it and don't really feel the need for vengeance. Like you said... karma is a B!@tch

Sorry to see this. Definatly getting some lock lugs now. I mostly park in my own garage but occasionally do visit sis in law down by you in Wpalm. +1 on camp out idea tho sometimes U gotta help Karma out so it arrives a lot sooner for those A#*holes! Its a personal decision though and I can understand ur pain insurance notwithstanding. My former ride a very stealty 9psi sc d and intercoold v6 accord was given a" beautiful" wrap around key(scratched) job one evenining while I and family were gone for 45min in the gainesville FL toys R us F#**#ers it still burns my a** to this day 1.5yr later. Full coverage insurance is great but U StilL got a deductable so it does cost plus time lost while its in shop. Again SAD to c those pictures. Goodluck finding scum, just gotta hope that w such unique rims that they will show up again and that Karma does indeed screw those thieves over

I had some scum bag puncture two tires on my E63, and all four tires on my other Benz. I wanted to hurt somebody that day, trust me.
