Stealin' wheels

   Mind you, this is purely a guess, base on experience driving off road, not
experience stealing tires.  Take two high -lift bumper jacks (the kind most
4x4 owners carry around for getting unstuck) and put one on each corner of the
front bumper.  Jack it up, take the wheels, let them down.  The belly of the
car will hit the ground before the bumper gets anywhere close to being unable
to get the jack out.  Repeat process on the rear, and you have a car sitting
on the ground.  Look for scratches on the underside of the bumpers/bumper
covers.
