I found my rims
#16
Personally I'm a big fan of not hurting is car but screwing with the rims and tires. If you're for sure getting new rims+tires and don't care about these now, I'd slash all of the tires and then beat the hell out of the rims with a sledgehammer or something. That way you didn't vandalize the car, just your own property, which you're allowed to do.
Keep us updated on this. Sorry to hear about it but glad everything will come out okay.

Haha sounds good. I'd just be careful with the windows. I mean, I'm all for getting even, I just don't want to see you get in an legal trouble whereas I think if you do your rims+tires then a judge could/would let that go. It's your choice of course.

You should go back, find the car if he works there, and wait all day if you have to. Follow him home, and find out where he lives. See if he parks in a garage or not, if he doesn't steal them back. Do what he did to you. If he does park under a garage, steal them back in the mall parking lot. Either that, or wait in the lot for a cop and show them your evidence. Maybe he can get the car towed?

This must be what the beginnings of a lynch mob or public stoning looks like!!!!
I accidentally bought used parts for my ancient MGB (20 years ago) from a used parts store that bought from chop shops- even some of the clerks had no idea where the stuff came from (I lived in East LA at the time). I didn't know the parts were "hot," but was confronted by a guy who claimed my rims were his stolen ones. He decided I needed a good ***-whoopin and pulled out his baseball bat.
