Hi, im due to pop in to my local OPC as one or two wheels on my 20mth old 996 has lacquer bubling on the wheel rim. They are in a position where curbing would not touch and are bubling. What will they do, do you think.

I think they wheel should be replaced under warranty.

just an update,

the opc took a photo of the bubling on one wheel and said photo will be sent to porsche gb to decide on if its covered. He wouldnt be pressed if from experience they would repair/replace the wheel.

opc guy did say that if they didnt agree, i could always write to porshce gb.

Hmmmm. car is 22 mths, and was just about to look to put an order in for a 997 for about 1 years time. lets hope Porshce Gb agree that wheel lacquer should not be bubling.
