Not long ago, the factory 20″ wheels on my 2014 GMC Sierra were stolen off of my truck in front of my house. The thieves set the truck back down on the street resting on the rear brake rotors and front ball joints.
Fortunately, my insurance covered the entire loss. I replaced the factory 20″ wheels with a set of 22″ wheels from the GM Performance catalog. These are basically the 22″ Denali wheels. But instead of chrome inserts, they have black painted inserts.
In this video I show a few of the steps I am taking to prevent theft of my wheels in the future. I purchased a set of Gorilla Guard wheel locks. Then I also show you my little trick of stamping the wheels with some kind of identifying mark. This could help to recover the rims in case they do get stolen in the future.

cant hammer the outside but can hammer the inside
what about your spare tyre under the trunk? Aren’t you worried that someone could steal it?
Dont park in the street and dont live in a black area. Problem solved.
People can just sand down the numbers or bring them down
One thing you forgot to mention is if you can put your car in a garage or behind a fence. Out of sight out of mind.
i woulda stamped it nice and neat under that GMC logo
My friend fixed my truck but when I got the truck back the truck looked closer to the ground. Do people steal wheels replace with their wheels and put the same tires on. I overheard this so called friend say to someone, after looking at my tires, “Those suckers are coming off.” These were GMC tires.
NEVER PUT UR JACK ON THE AXLE
Ive been there man. Shit makes you paranoid and angry.
666 ….the devil made me do it!
Great video. Hope it never happens again.
stamp your vin# in them
Sorry for your loss, my dad got his rims stolen at a high school football game, but I like the first set of rims better
all you need is a motion detector attached to the underside of your truck that goes off as soon as your vehicle is being jacked up then robots run out from your garage with lasers from there eyes and guns shooting the theives
man i dirty big chain to tree
Tps have serial number code when dealership have scan your tps That can work to let you know those are your rims
Fucking thiefs get a job
It’s not hard to figure out who stole those rims……Go looking in these off the wall businesses that sell wheels and you’ll come across them, I’m almost certain 99.99% they’ll be there……
Thx for tha rims sucka. They look sweet on my 2012 Silverado
Fuck those niggers at least you got new wheels now
Thanks for your help
just park ur truck in your truck dumbass
Sorry about ur loss but smart on the stamps. Im getting a set.
How do you make sure you remember where you put the lug key? A note in the owners manual?
Fucking amazing
AND BTW, IT’S BEEN COMMON KNOWLEDGE SINCE THE 90S THAT ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS GET A SIMILAR WHEEL LOCK KIT THEN HAMMER THAT NON-MATCHING KEY ON… THIS WORKS ON ANY LOCK AND IS WORTH A $5-$15k SET OF RIMS.
