OP pictures really show a difference , on my Bronze methods NV sometimes i will look at the wheels and they seem to be a different shade of bronze . but its the way the sunlight hits and shaded areas of my driveway.

I originally though that as well, but it seemed no matter the light, I would ended up have three bronze wheels and this one that always looked duller.

Here is another picture of the issue wheel. Almost looks as if too much graphite was used in the base

I like how it matches the rotor rust :p

since you’ve got the camera out... how about showing one of the other wheels?

Here are all 4 wheels (top left is issue wheel)

it looks like my only option will be to buy one wheel and hope it matches the other three. Bummed I have to throw money at this to fix it

I would have THEM ship you a single wheel for FREE and if the color matches, you will ship them back the bad one in their original box on their dime. They can use the bad one with 3 darker ones to make a perfect matching set.

This should not be on you to fix. Tell them to come online and checkout this thread. They are going to lose a LOT of business if they do not make it right. Please keep us updated on your progress.
