They swap them onto their older model Hondas. Crv, accord, Civic, integra, Odyssey. Poor people shit.

Makes sense, but why don't we see this shit for more expensive cars like BMW or Audi, or Toyotas for that matter?

Different lug nut setups. I believe most honda/acura share the same 4 x / 5x pattern. I assume this keeps cost down.

​

Also, Most driving a high end bmw/audi probably don't leave it some where easily accessible to thieves just due to the different nature of where they live/work.

I see plenty of fancy cars parked on the street in Fairmount. The similar lug nuts makes sense, bigger market for hot wheels.

I think it's the fact that they're factory rims with a low profile tire. They look good, but since there so many out there people figure, fuck it they're easy to take

It’s trash culture. They believe new rims will enhance their sexual prowess.

Dude :( It wouldn't be a bad idea, but just be careful if you do head out right now. And if you see anyone doing that or something else to your car, don't confront them. Just call the cops. Your life comes first. Don't take a bullet for your car. Good luck.

This was also done to an Accord on 22nd near Cherry about 2-3 weeks ago. Your car isn’t safe parked on the street at night unless it is near a police precinct.
