Missing Rim...Please report!!!

Some idiots tried to steal my rims last night but oddly enough, only made off with one rim. They didn't even have the decency to leave the car jacked up and just let the car fall on the rotors. What really sucks is that I can't find a replacement anywhere. Should they have stolen all 4 rims, my insurance company would have just replaced them with some new ones. Bunch of IDIOTS! Anyways, does anyone out there know where I can get a BSA 243B 10 Spoke Rim? Yes, I really just need one.

just don't put your car on bricks. just let it down. ruin your rotors, brakes, whatever else, and just collect that money too

that sucks ur insurance company won't replace even one rim, I thought they had to replace/compensate for everything so long as it fell under the policy..

i saw a guy who had 2 huge steel studs embedded in his driveway on either side of each one of his tires, he ran a heavy-*** gauge chain through the rim to either stud.. might wanna try that next time

Here is what you need. They can be found on this siteAutoglitz.com The chrome 17" are $173.75. I'm possibly looking at a set from this company myself.
