Method Fat Five Concerns

[RaptorScrew]

Evening everyone,

Well, I just noticed that three of my four Fat Fives are (what appears to be) peeling (Flaking)...

Is anyone else having this issue and can something be done about it that you're aware of?

My thoughts are to contact Method at the beginning of this week but thought I'd start here first.


Of course, first thought would be "Did you hit or run a curb or rocks?"
No I haven't that I'm aware of. However, with that said, these edges are a good inch further inwards than the tire right next to it. It would definitely be VERY difficult to scratch them there. Your tire will hit first and then run up on top of whatever is in her way...

Thoughts? Thanx in advance...

Go to the place that mounted them. They didn't use the Teflon protector when they mounted your wheels

X2 appears a mounting issue...

My only concern with this theory is the fact that they have been mounted since November 2012 and they are just now doing this.

This has appeared within the last week...

My guess same as others, mounting. Mine don't have anything like that on them and I get them rotated every oil change.

if they continue to peal then it's the wheels.

BTW, I never mount my wheels on a machine that allows metal to metal contact.

Keep a black sharpie in your truck and black sharpie them every now and again. I've done this before. It helped with my OCD
