You could have been the owner of this Jeep in Sacramento.

It's nice that they left cinder blocks. That was thoughtful.

Just looking at his setup, those were likely some monster tires on some pretty nice wheels. That's gonna set him back some. Bummer.

I'd wager the front bumper cost as much as the wheels and tires.

I suppose they ran out of time, there's a lot more to be had while you've got the wrench in hand.

He should start looking on ebay and Craigslist for wheels similar to what he had.

I'd be curious to know how long it took them?

That happened to my Dad years ago...in his driveway. Porsche Boxster, same deal except no cinder blocks. He needed brake discs as well as tires & wheels. Cops surmised it was an organized group going from street to street like a mobile NASCAR pit crew.

Could have been worse. At least they left the vehicle.

That happened to a friend in High School. He woke up in the morning, looked outside, turned around, then after about 5 seconds stopped, thought something looked amiss, looked outside again and saw his Camaro on cinder blocks. We wondered why he drove his mom's car to school that day.
