Wrong wheels?

JARblue · 12-24-2020, 05:29 PM

Chances are those wheels have been around since at least 2012 so they've probably got a good bit of miles on them. A good refinish shouldn't cost more than about $150 per wheel. See if you can get the dealer to either discount that cost or take care of the refinish for you (make sure you get final approval of the results). You can probably get them to replace the tires too if they can refinish the wheels.

Does it have the metal imprint "RAYS ENG" or "JWL" on the rim?

The dealer is Carmax so it's doubtful they will do anything. The car itself looks absolutely brand new and only has 1500 miles. $32K seems little steep but they are usually $1-2K high on all their cars. I'm happy to walk without some concessions on their part. It's a nice used car but it ain't exactly a unicorn.

The wheels do have "RAYS ENG" on the face.

The wheels do have "RAYS ENG" on the front.

They look like these 09-12 Sport Wheels
