Did a search and couldn't find anything. Anyone have/had some wheel corrosion on their stock wheels? Here is a pic I just took. If you have, can you share how you removed it? What's the best way to get this back to normal? My other wheels don't show any sign. Just this one.

Thanks in advance.

Looks to be the beginning of the clear coat on the wheels failing.

You can use a sealant like our Quick Sealant to help slow it down, but the only true solution to failing clear coat is to strip it down and have it refinished.

No. No wheel weights there. Elsewhere on this wheel. Thanks, Nick. Hoping this is a warranty item. The other 3 are just fine.

Hopefully they cover that. My dealer actually marred one of my wheels when rotating tires and had them send it out. They actually pull the wheel and run it through a remanufacture process, grinding down the entire wheel, repainted and clear coated. Pretty slick job.
