Sumo Power wheels stolen
Taken from another forum
Last night just outside of Hull, the car was on a trailer waiting to do a show today and this morning the wheels had been stolen. The guys whom took them jacked the car up ON the trailer to steal them.
The wheels were Do-Luck Double Six's, in Chrome with Toyo T1-R tyres.
The wheels have the wierd offset which will only fit a 350Z, anyone who is offered these wheels, please get in touch.
We have only ever sold 6 sets of this type of wheel in the UK so they will be obvious to spot, this particular set was made special for EA. They also left behind some of the special wheel nuts which, you need to install the wheels ( they only come with this wheel from Japan ) so they will find it hard to install too.
Reward offered for thier return, car is at Max Power show next weekend as the star of the show for the event - and we cannot replace the wheels in time ( 6-8 weeks from Japan ).
Anyone reading this from any other forum, even non Jap sites, please cut and paste it everywhere for us or link it, the a-holes that stole them wouldnt know they are only for the 350Z so doubtful they could use them on anything else, we just need them back.
The car is insured and they will be replaced later on, thats not the issue, the issue is the line up of dates for EA promotion in various countries in Europe.
Typical, the car has been to 6 countries so far, all without incident, we take it to Hull and some mindless ***** steals the wheels probably not even realising that he has just stolen one of the most famous set of wheels in the country.
10 Copies of EA's New game : Need For Speed Underground 2 up for grabs to anyone who gets the wheels back.
Thanks all, I doubt we will get them back but worth a try...
