If they are 23 months old then not really anything they can do.
I'd just have them powdercoated and enjoy them  :innocent:

rex:
As far as I know these products, in the EU, have a warranty of at least 24 months (might be mistaking).
During the first 12 months I used the wheels for about 100km  :grin:. But they can clearly see that there was a mistake when painting. Anyway... not worth the effort.

i agree with rex that it smacks a bit of a company shirking its responsibility. warranty or not there is clearly a problem with the product which could have fairly easily been fixed by the company. considering that now rex won't be buying another set, and it has put me off TDs and maybe other forum members as well, they stood to lose more by not offering a solution.

i do agree that the cheapest way forward for the OP is to powdercoat them and continue enjoying them and just avoid future purchases from the company in question. i'll probably get a set of Sparco Asseto Garas for my track day wheels - whenever i have the funds that is!

I see it from both sides. That if the wheels have only been used for a short amount of time they should last longer than that and yes I agree with the OP there's definately a problem with the paint on these particular batch of wheels.

However the wheels are nearly 2 years old and the warranty is a year.
A years warranty is more than many places, as most don't offer any warranty on finish at all!
While the possible losses may seem high would you take a TV back to a shop after 2 years, assuming it had a years warranty, and demand a refund? Or more importantly kick up a fuss if they said no.
How many people would actually buy a new set of TD wheels anyway as opposed to used.. very few.
