SF Winning PIC, should I be concerned?
Got my SF Winnings last week. These are some beautiful wheels. WOW.
I noticed a few slight and I mean slight imperfections of half the wheels. Take a look at the pic. In the center of the wheel it looks like a grain of sand or rock is under the paint.
Anyone else experience this? Should I say something? It's not really noticeable unless you get like a half a foot away and look at it closely. I don't want to have to sent it back. I waited a month and a half!
For those with Volk look at your wheels closely, have you seen this too?

YOU got to be kidding me!...my SF winnings had at least 1-2 flaws per rim that i can find....that's not a flaw....u will have something inside or outside on the rims that wont' be perfect!!!!!......i thought the same thing when i got mine.....even my BBS rims had some "flaw" on the finish somewhere....mount them and enjoy them...and after 2 months of use when those fine light scratches become an issue...then you can say "what the F**k" heheheheh

Everyone says they will be stretched,
but that setup keeps your spedometer about the same.
Looks Awesome..HOW"s the Ride on those?

At first....when i switched the rims from the stock 18" i thought the ride and noise quality were IMPROVED believe it or not..but now that i have a couple thousand miles on the rims/tires....i wonder what it will be like when i switch back to the stock rims for the fall/winter.....I'll let u know....but initially....drastic improvement...but some say that as the tires wear down the noise issue and ride quality goes to ****....we'll see in a couple of months....

well, looks like I'm not the only person with this setup anymore (9.5/10.5 +29 all the way around)
Anyways, I wouldn't worry about the slight imperfections - I have a few "grain" looking spot on the inside of a couple of the spokes that are very similar to what you are talking about - however they are not noticable unless I'm cleaning the wheels and have my nose damn near between the spokes... regardless, after I step back and take them in, it's pretty hard to NOT have the biggest smile on my face
