Hi guys,
I have recently purchased a set of custom wheels manufactured by a company that shall remain anonymous for now, as I want to be fair if what I consider to be defects is part for the course regarding cast wheel quality.
The first set that I received had multiple defects on 3 of the 4 wheels I received. After sending pics to the dealer and the manufacturer, they agreed that they were not up to their quality standards. Before the second set was shipped out, I was assured by the owner of the North American distributor that he inspected the wheels and they were good to go.
I will be attaching pictures of the types of defects that I am seeing. If those of you with experience in either buying or selling cast wheels could give me your input as to whether or not I am being unrealistic. I definitely have OCD so it is quite possible. I was told by the dealer that the only way to get a perfect set of wheels was to go forged. Your thoughts? Thanks....
