Its becuase they are cheap wheels.

Sorry to hear about that Terry.

Did you try to mount it by grabbing the outside of the rim?

Everybody locally here is saying they wont touch them...but I expected that
They are also saying that the wheels cannot be repaired. But I dont believe it.

I know that kodiak makes replacement lips, Im just waiting for them to get back at me with pricing and turn around time. Problem is they have very very shitty customer service.



So I am getting the tires unmounted and the wheel lips removed from the barrels.

Another option I was thinking about was just having the lips sanded down smooth to get rid of the pits and then having them repolished.

Does anybody know of a good metal polishing place that would be able to repolish these??

They dont have to be in the state...I just need a good polishing shop
