September 6, 200817 yr The ex-wife got robbed the other day. They took the wheels off her Subie and left it sitting on the ground. The wheels stolen were LS alloys with decent tires. Also taken was the alternator out of the Subie I gave my daughter. Both are 90 Legacy wagons (EJ22). Does anyone have a set of steelies laying around and perhaps an alternator I could buy from you? This happened in Richmond CA and the cops will not do anything unless someone got shot during the theft. . . I did take the step of putting a set of keyd lugnuts on the wheels. Right now, the car is sitting on one caravan tire, two full-sized spare Subie tires and a subie spare. . . No, I won't let her drive it untill she gets tires. . . (even with the fuse in). Stealing the tires off of a car just makes me sick.
September 7, 200817 yr I worry about getting robbed just driving through their without even parking... everybody knows you take that risk any time you park in richmond... keyed lugnuts? the ones with the special socket adapter to take them off are useless... you gotta have nice ones with an actual locking key that makes them just spin... if they also took an alternator then an alarm probably would not have helped... at least stealies are cheap... check the local tire shops... heck, you might even be able to buy your old wheels back... --Spiffy
September 14, 200817 yr Author The wheels that were taken were LS alloys. I'll check the local PNP to see if they have a couple of steelies there. . .
