yeah. I was gonna say the same thing. I also have my center caps stolen on my 22''! I don't know why those people like to steal caps on 22'' wheels. they probably don't know caps are all the same no matter it's 22'' or 18''.

the picture reminds me my X was once on tow truck in LAX too. on the way to pick up my wife and kid but alternator failed all of a sudden. call the tow truck and we were back home on tow truck with 200 bucks less in my wallet. :(

Nice! 22's look great!!

Sorry to hear about the break in!

No worries - she still looks great and you'll have her back in no time..

I added a nice little bead of black silicone to the back of my centercaps..... you really have to pry to get them out from the front....in fact once the silicone cured......it's a bitch to push them out from the rear....but it definitley would deter some scrub from "working" on getting them out.

X5 is Europes most STOLEN car. Shitloads of them get stolen daily.

They did not manage to steal my car, but they did alot of damage and stole the wheels (hence the new 22'' wheels with NO hubcaps) I also need to get the TPC (RDC) sensors mounted in the 22'' wheels........

The X5 is not among the TOP 10 Stolen Cars in Canada:
http://www.canada.com/cars/story.html?id=1091154

Here's the 2008 listing...
The Top Ten Stolen Vehicles are:
1. 2000 Honda Civic SiR 2-door
2. 1999 Honda Civic SiR 2-door
3. 2004 Subaru Impreza WRX/WRX STi 4-door AWD
4. 1995 Dodge/Plymouth Grand Caravan/Voyager
5. 1995 Dodge/Plymouth Caravan/Voyager
6. 2002 Acura RSX Type S 2-door
7. 2001 Audi TT Quattro Roadster
8. 1995 Acura Integra 2-door
9. 1996 Dodge/Plymouth Neon 2-door
10. 1996 Dodge/Plymouth Neon 4-door

BUT...
"Thieves are stealing high-end four-wheel drive vehicles like the Hummer H2, Cadillac Escalade, Lexus RX350, BMWX5, Mercedes Benz GL450, Lincoln MKX and Toyota RAV4 in greater numbers. Vehicles like these are often stolen to order by organized crime rings, and shipped to places like West Africa and the Middle East, where they are well-suited to the terrain," said Dubin. "The recovery rate for stolen vehicles in Canada continues to decline. Canadians pay a huge cost for these kinds of thefts."
