We have plastic wedges for removing weights, they can still get at the finish. There isn't a whole lot you can do.





Calm down a bit. It's powerdercoat on an aftermarket wheel that's daily driven. Move on, the car will be fine. Or buy some tire machines and do it yourself.

I didn't sign anything waiving liability. I didn't sign anything actually. No repair order or nothing, just dropped the car off and picked it up when it was done.

And you cant tell me there's no way to get off wheel weights without scratching the wheel. Some light marks maybe, but cutting through the powder coat is just unacceptable.

I do realize that I'm frustrated right now, and probably not thinking the most rationally. Will I actually take him to court? Probably not. But I paid over $2K for these wheels and haven't even had them 2 months before they get cut up. I think I'm allowed to be mad.
