ALT Wheel Problems

I just finished writing an e-mail to ALT Wheels in hopes they will work something out on my wheel problems. All of the wheels the paint is pealing/flaking off in the center near the hub. These wheels are a shade over two years old, I am just hoping they stand behind thier products.

I will keep the forum advised on this Quality Issue with ALT Wheels.

Well I talked to some dude named "LT" He states there is only a one year warranty. I just find it hard to believe that a company would only put a one year warranty on a product ment to last the lifetime of your vehicle.

I went ahead and asked to speak to the manager, he was out but I just want to know what their line of thinking is.

More to come....

Similarly, this was one of the reasons why I decided against getting Motegi MR7 wheels with the gunmetal finish. I saw more than a fare share of them with flaked/chipped paint.

Good luck Killer. I hope ALT stands behind their products.
