Exposed aluminum + salt = corrosion
He said they will replace. I said not with the C OEM's. Not acceptable, as I'll have the same problem all over again.
I suggested the Magnum R/T 18". He's going to see if that can be done.
(anyone see where I'm going with this, yet? Go on, take a guess  )
To Be Continued . . .

I was at my dealer to-day getting an estimate on my fender bender and asked him if he had heard of any problems with the wheels and he said that he had heard from DC that the car washes were the problem with the type of soap they use. I told him, no way as it only appears to be cars in the snow belts that are effected. I too do not want to put these wheels back on plus I would like to see these Contis go away as well.
