As some may know I 'm a Manager with Tire Discounters. Tuesday a guy came into the RT. 4/Springdale store in a M3 and pulled out a set of SRT-4 rims and tires from his Beemer. He asked me to dismount the tires for him for another car he ownes. I said, thats cool but what are you going to do with the rims? He looks to the parking lot and says...who drived the black neon? I smiled and said me, why? He replied, want a set of rims cheap? I said hell yea, how much you want for them? He replied, well.....I just pulled them from my storage buildings I own from a non-paying tenant. They lost there car and everything in storage including the extra set of rims. There had been no payment or contact in 8 months from the person. You can have them for free!! I about shit! I asked, whats up with the car? He said the bank just picked it up to take it to auction. They said there had never been a payment made on the car. It's a 03, black and only has 4,000 miles on it. Unsure where/when the auction will be. Anyway....I have new winter rims 8)

I'm happy! They will get powder coated black and new rubber before winter time.
