dear zero, (paul)
here you go again, dont you talk a load of cr*p.
my wheels get cleaned at least once a waak and have had a treatment on them supplied by and applied by honda.
all four of my wheels have pitting and corrosion on them.
this is a safety aspect as well as a condition/look aspect. honda know it is a safety problem which is why they change them as well as a corrosion warranty one.
now think of something sensible to write.

There's bound to be some wear and tear if the car is used...........basically I think some owners expect too much

Mmmmmmm, the shoe analogy is a little out.
The tyres are the shoe and the wheel the foot, the shoe wears, the tyre wears, you replace. One should not expect the foot to become corroded and pitted, and I know for a fact some people never wash their feet properly!

thing is mine have no corrosion and no pitting so I am just speaking from my own eperience...surely all alloys will corrode to a certain extent
Maybe my use is unusually gentle?
