well, some of you may remember the tenzo apex 5's https://celicahobby.com/ubbthrea...rev=#Post197495 i got back in october. today i was out looking at my car and notice a BIG black spot on one of my rims. turns out that a small stone struck them and ripped the top layer of paint off, exposing the black under coating on a spot about 1" in diameter! so mad...

Basically all you can do is try fixing it, or send it back.

ship it back! or time to get another car, rims are cracked! lol works for me! Some people do such similar things.. ages ago when my grandfather was young, he would buy a new car and when I broke down he would trade it in for a new one, which was rediculous and my grandmother and him always had at least one nice car, even if they owned almost nothing else. Not the brighest of decisions. As for this rim subject, I suppose you could try and contact where you bought them from but good luck.. it's been around 8 months since you bought them.

tried the warrenty card with tenzo... they said "CAN NOT REPLACE UNDER WARENTY, LOOK LIKE ROAD DAMAGE", and that was the entire e-mail they sent me. so, i think i will just pay another two hundered for a new rim.
