My summer wheels & tyres were stolen over the weekend by some worthless piece of st. They are the original SP10 ones with black innards and diamond turned faces (as below), are in excellent condition with no damage and have part worn OEM Bridgestone tyres fitted. If anyone is offered any or sees an advert for these anywhere please let me know by PM or replying through this thread. Yours totally pissed-off, Pete.

Not on Twitter, too old but thanks anyway Chris. I will investigate the serial number possibility with my Dealer but remain distinctly pessimistic.

Thanks for all the help and support guys. I know it is a rare but not unique wheel fitment but don't know what other cars they fit. Does anyone on here know? Wheels/tyres were in storage so no damage to the car thankfully.

Pete,

I've just received a notification email from eBay that these wheels have just been listed:

I will also send you a PM.
Thanks Jonny, have replied to your PM.

Fortunately my car insurance is paying out in full for my wheels & tyres and therefore I will simply forward this link to the police and leave it to them. What more can I do as the wheels were not security marked and I actually suspect these aren't them as they do look brand new in the photos rather than mint condition used as mine were?

This means I will also be getting 4 brand new summer tyres all at once. Therefore tempted to change over to Michelin Pilot Super Sports as some have recommended. My main dealer has tried to discourage this saying the DSC is not calibrated to them etc etc but just wondered how strongly those that have tried them feel and in exactly what ways they are better and perhaps if they are worse in any way?
