As follow on to the below, I just got another set of new wheels, again corrosion, again same issues, 3 sets in two years, 20k on the clock.. but for BMW it’s not an issue, just keep replacing them, 12 month warranty - at this rate when the cars 10 years old it will still be getting its annual new wheels 😀

I have complained for 6 months, all to no development or result... its really like thanks for buy the car, we got the money now off you go...
I have seen better quality wheel finishes elsewhere within BMW range, and seen many other brand cars with same finish wheel all with much better finish, but getting this sorted, is going nowhere..
Other issue, when car is wet or it has rained or been washed, if you open the rear water pours in.. - sure testing would have noticed this, and fix would have been found..
