Peeling wheels
Anyone else experiencing anything similar? Appears like there is a coating on my stock wheels that is starting to peel. It looks kinda like that plastic that you find on new electronics equipment. I have a section that is peeling. Anyone else? Do you guys thunk that this would be covered by warranty?

It should be covered by warranty.

I agree it's probably the clear coat and it should be covered under warranty. Certain solvents can cause the coat to start peeling so be sure to not let them put the blame on you (unless you did use something funky to clean the wheels
)
The good thing is that it's a pretty easy fix to get repaired (although inconvenient.)
