I was washing my wheels today to remove the tire lube and noticed the shop scratched both back wheels installing the tires. I thought it was just dried tire lube but sadly, not. The scratches go halfway around the sharp corner on the rims. The shop that did them said they needed to do the rear 30 profile tires on their state of the art machine with their experienced tech. Such a nice gesture.
Hard to see when looking at the rim straight on. But from the side, there's a clear line where the paint is gone. I don't think its down to bare aluminum.
How to deal with this? Take them back and get the rims repaired? Gloss black is going to be hard to hide a repair. Would they need to repaint the whole wheel? Seems like a lot of trouble. Use touch up paint? Seems like that would be quickest, most unprofessional way to do it.
I'm pissed.
