I think you got lucky - VW UK were crystal clear about it with me.

I thought their objection was that your car was not supplied with the wheels from the factory so wouldn't honour a warranty on them?

neg:
If there is minor damage but the whiteworm is not where its been damaged you can sometimes (dealer dependant) get them swapped but as RR stated, some will refuse if there is any damage to the wheel.  I went through this when trying to get the 25th Anni wheels swapped.

In fact I am suprised VW are not swapped them with refurbished painted Monza's II by now, like they did with the RC's

....Yes that's the technicality they used to duck out of the issue, but during the process of my claim this point I made earlier was made clear.

neg:
I was lucky with out 25th Anni wheels - I bought the car from the original owner and he had never had the wheels swapped (car was just under 5 years old), to cut a long story short with a bit off hassle and persistance as I knew about the problem I managed to get 4 new alloys from them -  FOC in the end too ;o)
