Default Rusted RSX Rims

I have a 03 RSX and all four rims are corroded along the spokes. Does anyone else out there have the same problem?

If you're still under warranty take it back to the dealer and show them.

Brought the car in for service and the tech writer said that the clearcoat was gone and they will replace the rims.

The spokes of all four wheels are pitted and rusty. That's because the clearcost was incorrectly applied at the factory.

Don't confuse rust and corrosion. Iron rusts, aluminum corrodes.
