Dick Cepek DC-1 - Finish Coming Off. Anyone else?
Hey everyone. I picked up a set of 5 DC-1's (17") less than a year ago and after 1 winter the UV coating (at least thats what I think it is) seems to have cracked and is flaking off. The exposed metal is then corroding... or oxidizing... or something. Basically the wheels look like s!#$
I've emailed the company to see if they will help me. The wheels are supposed to be warrantied against defects. I would think this falls in that category.
Anyone else had this problem? How did you resolve the issue?

DC-1 issue
I had a problem like that and I called them. They told me that they knew they had an issue and they stood behind it 100%. They now have the DC-2 which took care of all the issues.

Needless to say, i will never purchase another wheel with this type of finish on it...the manufacturer did their part in warrantying the problem, I just don't wanna mess around with that BS again...
