Beadlock Issue

[NES431]

I noticed that the factory BL rims are starting to pit and bubble after only 17K miles. Am I being unrealistic to think they should hold up a little better than that? Has anyone else had the same issue and did Ford do anything to make it right?

I would be pissed and bring it back has to be a bad set of wheels or something. This would be covered with how new it is and that low of miles I would think.

Warranty.

Same rims 28000ish and nothing like that. Warranty I would think. Are all the rims doing it?

Are they exposed to salt?

 

[NE Raptor]

they will definitely warranty that

Could be car/wheel washing chemicals being used. Make sure you rinse thoroughly. Water collects in those areas.

I have the same issue (though not that bad) on all 4 rims, the dealer took pictures of them and sent a inquiry into Ford. I'm still waiting to hear their response. Totally sucks, I've got only 18K on my tuck. Interesting enough my Gen1 had bead locks as well and the bubbling began just after the 3 year mark.

I had peeling paint on one of my 18 beadlocks. The dealer got me a new wheel under warranty.

I noticed the same thing when I pulled the beadlocks to put the true beadlocks on. Several places have this bubbling
