The hub doesn't house the studs on Porsche's. They use bolts instead of nuts. Similar to BMW.

Mine uses aluminum nuts. The stud is in the hub.

No way the garage attendants do not have a clue who is behind this. I would have been really pissed for sure if this ever happened to me.

Public parking at a hospital, no attendants -- self-paid parking. A few security patrols now and then, but it's still six floors of parking.

Did not know it was an un-attended pubic parking garage. Still, the brazenness of such thievery is absolutely astonishing.

Just imagine what that kind of "talent" could accomplish if put towards better activities...

did this happen at Jackson Memorial Hospital or University of Miami Hospital?

this happened to a 2015 BMW X5, 6 months ago.

Happened at JHS -- all way up at sixth floor.

Porsche owner (JHS doctor) won't be chiming in anytime soon, he will probably be undergoing facial cosmetic surgery at his own hospital to cover up his identity

Check Craigslist. I'm sure the wheels are there for sale.

Maybe it is a doctors car who did a bad surgical job leading to this in return. But then again I think it would've been worse. Only taking the wheels is petty for this car. A hammer to the rotors for starters after removing the wheels would start some serious damage. I guess the place has no security cameras?

1999 e320 4matic wagon
212 content.

S212, S211, S210.

One of the reasons I drive the starting-to-rust S210 on the right. No one is interested in a 16 year old car. Still drives like the S211 in the middle, shocker since it's got the same engine, transmission, and basic hardware underneath.

The S212 on the left, is sublime. Awesome car. Only way up is the E63 AMG wagon. Can't justify the extra $50k for the V8 though.

hahaha, yeah the lugs are broken. They took a sledge hammer and broke them off. How dumb does that sound? Typical dumb comments from this forum. Porsche has the same type of lugs MB uses. They are lug bolts that thread into the rotor. Learn about cars people. LMFAO@ "studs are broken". :r olf:
