2009 rim warning
well i'll start like this my truck is an 09 sport 4X4 with these rims
well already there is corrosion started all through all four rims, apparently from the tire and wheel expert i go to see it is slat that has already made it behind the polished finish and is eating away the inside, now I've actually seen about 4 other rangers driving around town with the same markings on there rims, so i believe it is a problem with the way they've polished the rims or something, however for the price of the rims which are, $750-800 dollars per rim, he says they should be covered under a manufactures defect warranty or a quality warranty of some sort so I'm going back to raise some hell on the matter but just thought I'd throw this out there.

i don;t know what caused the corrosion to start but corrosion period on a rim that's only a year old it just falls under there warranty I'm no longer in Richmond hill and when i was there i dealt with pine tree i tried to buy a truck form twin hills but was having a rather hard time dealing with them, as for the price of the rims i know this price cause i tried to buy a 5th rim to use as a full size spare and that's the price they gave me.

yes rims for even bigger vehicles like escalades and hummers are cheaper the reason why is they are ford products for example try getting any stock rims with a companies logo on them they can charge whatever they want. and that's just for polished aluminum I'd love to here what there price are for the platinum rims or the f150's chrome rims.

yes sorry that was probably bad wording what i meant is bigger rims are expensive yes i understand that the bigger the rim usually the more expensive however this rule is broken when you get to stock dealer rims only because they can charge whatever they want for them. actually that's probably not the right wording either I'd have to agree with you it doesn't make sense but that's what there charging for them but again remember these prices i listed are in Canadian dollars so in the states it's probably cheaper.
