It could be the rocks from the country road. Need better pics of the wheels and dropped. Not bad though. Original.

Tires seem too small, what size did you go with? and yeah it needs that drop now, but you knew that already.

they are 225/40/18 jack they were on my stock 18's

and its not rocks i have the same line starting on all the rimss.. and i checked them after tire farm mounted them no scratches or defects it was after i drove it all rims have either a big line like that or a tiny one starting

May be the paint cracking but hopefully not.. just make sure if it starts to flake u exercise your warranty

The installer probably cracked the paint putting on the rubber,Damaged in shipping and the paint fell off later or you brushed the corner of a curb slightly .
Did you pile them on top of each other when you were mounting them on the car?


Changed my answer after seeing other post.I think it was the air clamp on the tire mounting machine that holds the rim when cranking the tires on.if not that it was definitlely the machine used to mount the rubber if the mark is in the same spot and size.

Could be that they're $90 bucks a wheel. You get what you pay for. Get them touched up, and clear coated again.
