Re: What to do with factory tires/wheels?
Keep them so when they get stolen, you can have something to ride around on. Seriosly.
I know two guys who got those exact wheels stolen. Then, they put the stockers back on, and no problem. Also, I convinced them to go wheeling with me once the stockers were back. And both loved it so much, they vowed to keep stock rims so they could wheel.

Haven't put mine on yet. Just showing someone what they look like on the SUT. You're quite the investigative reporter.

And how exactly did they get the wheel locks off? Did they have the "key"? (I assume we're talking about locking lug nuts). |

That's what I was thinking. I'm not sure how wheel locks work in terms of number of different combos out there. Maybe there's some sort of wheel lock master key. I'm not really worried about that. My neighborhood has no crime and most places that you might visit down here have garages.
