I would contact the manufacturer/reseller asap, take pictures etc... so you have some records and have your receipt ready. Hope it works out, that sux.

That is really strange... Only 50 miles on them.... car is garage kept....brand new. I'm wondering if it is weather related? Or maybe a quality issue? This is interesting because I have wheels from the same manufacturer and I'm wondering if I'll run into the same problem. My wheels are fairly new also. Maybe only 2 months old. They do advertise that they use 3 coats of OEM quality clearcoat. It is strange because EXE seems like a higher end brand for 1 piece wheels.

I had to send back one of my Giovanna Anzios the day after i put them on because it was bubbling. Its probably a manufacturing problem call them and have them send some carrier to pick them up.
