Default Linea corse wheels quality

Hi CL i purchased these wheels brand new around 6 months ago and the quality of the finish surprised me. Linea corse is good wheels I know a lot of CL members have them and for some reason linea corse decided to paint the outer lip of the wheels black and now it starts peeling. I know that area suppose to be cover by the tires but almost all of us went stretch tires And also when I changed my tires last week the paint peeled off with the tires weights. Anyone have these problems? Or is it just my set? Thanks! The wheels is only 6 months old

My wheels are experiencing a similar effect. I have the Linea Corse Dynas and the clear coat/thin plastic coating that is on the wheels is peeling off and the wheels look horrible up close now.

Darn, this is not good to hear. Have you guys contacted the distributors/sellers or the company itself for warranty? What did they say?

I contacted with the shop I purchased these from and they said the black is the base coat so the paint is not as tough as the face of the wheel. They can file a warranty claim but since I ran stretch tires most likely it's going to peel again..
