If he doesn't have insurance, then just buy some OEM rims off of Ebay or even off the Parts/Accessories page here on G35driver. As one person already mentioned, you can snag a practically new set of OEM "18 with good condition tires for around $1500.

ahh tru i didnt think about the "getting credit" for the 17's good point i stand corrected...

 

I got quoted $900 per rim from Riverside Infiniti. Whew steep!! Some stupid tow truck bastard dropped my wheel on the ashpalt and scratched it up. Luckily somebody was able to repair it for $50 and it looks brand new!!

ya...tow truck drivers are some trashy bastards,

why would his premium go up if they were stolen?

 

Claim the rims.. Remember there was a guy who get new Volks LE37T's and tires with money to spare because of his claims.

That is absolute b.s. Insurance companies can NOT raise your premium for making a comprensive claim.

 

If he is going to pay for anything that an insurance company covers why would he even bother having insurance? Maybe I am missing something.

Insurance companies are just an organized way of stealing peoples money. Think of all the money that goes in so they can cover your @$$ in the case something should happen. I'd say the average person (based on a $2000/year policy) pays at least $10,000 on insurance between claims. Now with that add the deductible, $500, then add the raise in premium (say it was stolen wheels ~$4000 worth), add $50 a month = $600 for the year x 3 years (minimum) $1800. You've now payed the insurance $12,300 to cover your @$$ in the case of a mishap. When in actuality they should have banked all that you have invested, maybe take some interest and feed from your supply. not charging you a penny more than your deductible. What a concept. Now if what you have banked exceeds the cost of your mishap, then and only then shall you be forced to pay an added excess. I think I'm on to something here.

For those who care. I drive a Silver Sedan 6MT CA license plate "KRZ HAYN" = "Krazy Hawaiian". A "Shaka" is always welcome.

 

And when you mow down a row of children, who will pay the millions in medical bills?.. We would all save approx. $250 per year if there was less insurance fraud alot less lawyers.
