Well, I talked to the manager of the powder coating place and now he's telling me that from his research, that the factory SS/TC rims have been known to come from the factory warped. Uh, yea, 15,000 miles and my rims decide to NOW warp. Unlikely! He said that GM has a recall for the factory rims or some crap 
Ain't gonna happen.
BTW..what are the odds of all FOUR warping on you?

The front 2 were warped, so they put them on the back and the back rims on the front, which were not warped. After a few WOT runs, go figure, the car vibrates. Didn't vibrate before until after 4-5 WOT runs Taken the car in tomorrow to the dealership to see what they'll say.

Dealership isn't covering which does not really surprise me at all (nothing against GM). The dealership said that the rims would have shown signs of weakness within the first week of owning it. Makes sense to me.
Edit: Anybody else have any input?
