I came back home last night to notice someone had stolen not only 2 of my wheels center caps but all 4 chrome valve sleeves and caps of my wheels. I know they where stolen right in the parking lot where I reside since I had not taken the car that day. I bought new chrome valve sleeves and caps at my job to replace the missing ones and ordered a new set of center caps on Ebay. I'm clueless about how to handle the situation and I fear I'll get my new caps stolen as well. I've been thinking about using epoxy adhesives (only on the center caps of course). Any ideas?

Beside, I shouldn't even have to do that. What kind of world are we living in??

I went with chrome valve stems. I don't think they were even $5 for the set. I'm surprised my valve covers haven't been stolen yet.

Seriously, why steal valve stems. What'* wrong with people nowadays? Ughh.

Why steal anything, the stuff is really very cheep.

That sucks! I had chrome stems and caps taken from me before as well. I ended up using a wrench and tightening them down and never had them pulled again.

The center caps can be epoxied on, but remember you may need to take them off eventually!

my big fear about epoxying center caps on is what a thief will do to the wheel itself trying to get them off. They know they should come off and don't care what they do to the wheel to succeed.

I could always take them off and put them in the trunk but that would defeat the purpose of having them.
