    Lol, don't even buy a car. Problem solved. Because while you are worried about pitting and scuffing rims while it sits in the garage all hermetically sealed like that, your rubber gaskets are dry rotting away and you will soon have leaks, which will leak onto your floor. Then you have more than just cosmetic problems all around.

    Got a Sharpie that will fix that right up.

    On another note guy expecting a free set of wheels is pretty delusional, might luck out and get a set of center caps

    Those are miniscule blemishes. Let them touch the paint up and move on, dude. If those are the biggest dings in your rims after 2 years and 20k miles, you're not trying hard enough :mudding::burnrubber:

    This makes most "first world problems" look like actual problems.

    I don't think it's that. I think it's the feel for the need to bitch and cause a big scene. Sure I'd be a little upset if it was my truck as long as I knew 100% it was caused by them. However I wouldn't post a thread on here bitching. I simply would do 1 of two things. Either go see the service manager and talk with them about it or I would simply not return their for service anymore

    I feel like I could have some sympathy if an electron microscope wasn't needed to see the "damage".

    You should demand a new rear axle from toyota because of the hub rust. Totally unacceptable on a brand new used truck. Did you drive it when it was raining!!!? You mad man.

    While you are at it get new aftermarket lugs too! I bet they caused that as well. (Mine looked like that after 3 months)
