That really sucks. +1 on checking Craigslist, but I'd be keeping on eye out on other Porsches in your area seeing as 5x130 bolt spacing will narrow down that wheel market considerably.

I also agree that it may be another 944 owner, albeit a new 944 owner which is maybe why your more valuable 944 parts weren't taken (probably didn't know what they were). I can't imagine why someone would steal a 944 cylinder head unless they had in mind a good use for it.

Whoever it is, it'll catch up to them.

Anyways, this sucks Borys. For more info on those wheels, they're 8.5 front and 10 rear. Like Borys said, they're all black. You don't see many BBS LMs in all black, usually black with a polished lip. I'll keep my eye out.

this reminds me of what happened to me, one year ago non the less......


my dad left the garage open by accident, and i come home at 830PM from work, and i notice the garage is open. my expensive tire rack jack is gone (gift from me to me on xmas), my tool chest, 2 jack stands, used oil (kept in newish looking quarts).

fact is, i keep the car keys in the tool chest of mine, underneath the secret compartment...... couldnt drive the car for weeks until full set of keys and new locks and ignition came from europe. got it for cheap.

in the end, why do people have to steal?? why cant some people mind their damn business. . ill keep a lookout
