turboman38 Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 I don't normally do this but this really upset me. I bought a set of rims from Kyowa racing for my 05 LGT. Into the second summer on the car the clear coat started to peel off. Kyowa said their clear coat and paint warranty is for 1 year and would not do anything about it. Now here is the kicker. The rims were only on the car for around 9 months (summer driving only)... 3 months into the second summer. Long story short...be careful when buying any Kyowa rims as they will not stand behind there product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdzowner Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 i hate to say it but you get what you pay for. its probably more costly for them to deal with it then the rims actually were. sucks. go get them powdercoated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stclark13 Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Had mine for 3 years never had a problem, waxed them 2x a year with no issues. Gotta take care of your wheels just like the paint on your car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schrei Wolf Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 I've been looking at getting a pair myself... Maybe you got a bad batch as the others haven't had any issues? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Santos Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Uh-oh! I hope I don't go through this! I paid $700 for rims+tires (all 4) about 2 months ago...They look great but I hope they last! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
