Alloy wheels/rims not fully painted

madman · 02-09-2008, 03:37 PM

Hi guys.

While washing my car today i noticed that the wheels do not appear to be fully painted.

Only the outside spokes and part of the internal rim appears to be fully sprayed. The remainder has not spray on it and you can see where the spraying has stopped.

I have never noticed this on any other rims before. Is this normal?

I don't have pics as I couldnt get it to show on the camera.

They are stock rims on the 320i E92.

This is sometimes normal on mass produced wheels. You have nothing to worry about unless you start seeing signs of wearing.
