You ain't lying. Not only that but they **** loads lighter than cinder blocks which made the job scary easy I'm sure. Criminals find all kind of ways to make their jobs easier. Too bad our government lacks that kind of resourcefulness.

As for stealing the wheels on the Rav4. There may be more demand for 17" wheels in the appraoching winter months than 19" wheels. Which in turn makes for quicker sales at a higher price.

wow! stolen all fours? that really does sucks. I had one stolen off my maxima the factory stock SE, I was ticked off when I woke up and saw one wheel gone, and left the jack stand has nissan on it. sorry to hear your pain, there is a rash of rim theft since they are expensive to replace. My stock rim for one from nissan is 653 bucks. I am sure your Rav4 is a lot more expenisve since it a newer model not counting the tires included.
