Yeah little alloy corrosion. Seen it all to often mate. Worse thing is if you sand back to bare metal and refurb it will be back within a year. Id suggest either get it needs to be acid dipped and neutralised with chemicals then refurbed or replace. You usualy see it on polished wheels that are then clear coated.

Looks to me as though the colour coat has been damaged before the clear coat was applied to me, if it definitely not impact damaged from stone or kerb? |

Well good news JLR have approved the warrany claim. The new alloy will be fitted tomorrow. Even though these alloys are used in winter on standard M/S tyres I like everything to be immaculate MY14 Kahn Converted Dynamic - Fuji White Ebony/Pimento Interior
