Clear coat coming off new wheels from Tire Rack.

I bought some Granite 22" wheels from Tirerack about 60 days ago and now 1 of the wheels has peeling clear coat. It funny because they shipped me 3 wheel s arriving one day and the other showing up a few days after. This is that wheel.

Anyone have experience with Tirerack return policy? Is is worth it or should I just go and have it re-clear coated?

22's? Whoo Doggie... well, a baller such as yourself could just use that as an excuse to drop that whip and start fresh.

However, it's worth a call to Tirerack. I've ordered a couple sets of wheels and at least a half dozen sets of tires. I've returned a few and they've always had great customer service. If they can't fix it, might be worth following up with the manufacturer.

Good Luck Big Pimpin...

Call tire rack. Probably that 3rd wheel was damaged and refinished poorly, they should make good

Talked to tirerack and they were very helpful as usual. All wheels are covered under a 1 yr finish guarantee.

Cheap wheels and good service. Thats hard to beat.
