Default Wheel problems

I have a 2013 F150 Platinum and my front wheels look like crap. The clear coat is messing up, was wondering if there is anyway to fix it myself and make it look factory. Wheel problems-photo6.jpg

Do you live up north where they salt the roads? With the clear coat peeling there isn't much you can do at home. Check out a local tire shop, they should be able to send the wheel off and have it refinished for about $125.

I live in Houston TX and I am unsure if this truck spent any time up north but it doesn't look like it.

Stop in to your closest Discount Tire Co store and get a quote. I worked for them for over 10 years and I know they can have the wheel refinished for about $125 retail or less. It usually is done in 24 hours also.
