BTW, he lives in the (909) area code and his phone number was (909) 930-7525 and his name is John. he drives a 88-91 black civic hatchback that probably has my rims on it . he also has a roll bar inside. can anyone help me out?

I'm usually against theft but go get your rims back. And I dont mean by asking him politely .

i know you traded him and what not, i would say count the loss and get the turbo rebuilt, but until them look for that guy and when you find him smash his hands with a hammer
