Sorry if this is stupid, but I have never bought wheels for my car before.
I bought them brand new from a vendor on this forum.
Price was better than any other vendor and wheels were shipped 2nd day air.
So can't complain there.
Received the wheels today and 3 out of the 4 rims have imperfections.
My question is: Is this normal for brand new wheels to have damage like this?
I know you won't be able to see it with the tires on, but I am worried about if these will eventually cause issues over time.
(And for the amount of money spent, really expected them to be perfect like the 4th rim is)
If I am being nit-picky, let me know your opinion.
Like I said, first time buyer, so I am not sure what is considered an "acceptable" amount of imperfections for new wheels.
In case anyone was interested:
Fronts - 9.5"x18, 15mm, F1 Silver Enkei RPF1:3798956515SP
Rears - 10.5"x18, 15mm, F1 Silver Enkei RPF1: 37981056515SP
Tires - Hankook Ventus V12s 245/40/18 & 275/40/18
