just keep washing them, sooner or later the peeling with make its way to the front. once chrome starts peeling it doesn't stop. you can speed up the process with anything that is acidic...and they will never know.

Almost everyone has at least a 1 year warranty on chrome...get back with the place you bought em from and let em know you want a new set. Next time you buy...just call me.

I had the same problems on my welds. I went through 6 rims before I got 4 that would stay chrome and not peel. It took 2 months the first time the rims peeled and they wanted me to pay shipping too.

That sales rep is your ticket to new rim(s). After my 2nd set of rims peeled, I met with a rep. I told him basically that it was BS and wanted 4 new rims even though 3 were messup up. He has the power to get you a new rim(s) and my rep got me mine. just got to stay on their ***. Good luck.
