2.4 SS/NA 17" Polished Rim question

I'm taking my car to the dealer tomorrow for other stuff, but I need some help.

Some of my rims (Car is like 2 weeks old) has ripple indentations going horizontal, sort of like this

- - - - - -

- - - - - -

Its on spokes, going closer to the outer rim.


Anyone seen or heard of this before?

Thanks.

Did you go through an automatic car wash that grabs your wheels and pulls your car through? I've read on here about some members having those **** their wheels - not sure if that's what caused it though.

Nope, not at all. I only go to those UWASH bays.
It almost looks like a punch card, really weird.

I went to the bodywork place, couldn't see the marks because of all the rotten snow/salt/slush and dirt on the wheels. The Owner of the bodyshop said that I shouldn't worry since I still got warrenty(Brand new car) and to bring it in the spring so they can have a look at it and take care of it.

Hopefully I'll get brand new wheels out of it.
