Hey guys i have a problem. I have owned some Lenia Corse Dynas for about 3-4 weeks now. Everyone keeps telling me that one of my rear wheels is "too light and different color" (i have all hyper black btw) I keep telling them it just looks that way because of the extreme brake dust of our cars in the front.

But the other rear looks just like the fronts???

Here are some pics. tell me if you see a difference in color and if this is just normal of the build prosses.



Ok here are the pictures. The 2 front and this one rear wheel look like this.


One of the rears looks like this.... keep in mind the pictures were taken just 2 minutes ago. I took the picture on the shade side of the car then turned the car around and took the other picture as close to the same position as i could.

Is this such a bid difference that i should be trying to get this wheel replaced?? People don't notice until they stop and really look at the car. Most don't say anything but then i ask if they see a difference and they say "yea i did't want to say anything because i thought thats just the way they are supposed to be, but they do look different"

definitely looks lighter than the other 3. you should prolly call up wheeldude and see what they can do about it. didn't you notice the difference when you first got them?

Well when i got them i had a few problems installing them and it was late. Then day i finally got them installed literally at 9 p.m. and i hit the road from AZ to NM. By the time i got to my house in NM people would point them out but i would just blame the front brake dust. Then for no reason i looked at the other rear tire and definitely saw the difference even after i washed them all..

Here is another pic. The rear is the bad on. compare it to the front. its hard to see but look at the spokes were the light hits them.. you can tell the rear is kind of missing a shade of black. Did not take pictures of the full car because the camera wont capture the difference

and more pics.

I don't think it's that bad really but it's worth a shot to see if he'll replace it for u...

omg... never ever use a shamwow on ANY PART OF YOUR CAR... EVER~

to clean your rims, put some car soap in a spray bottle and fill with water, same amount ratio as washing your car with a bucket. spray with soap and ONLY USE microfiber towels, THATS IT. no chemical rim cleaner sprays from meguiers/mothers NOTHING, just car soap n water n mf towels.

lol it's bad when other ppl can point out the difference to you

get a popsicle stick (or even a plastic something, like toothbrush), drape the mf towel over it and use that. I use this on the rim face/barrel bolts, from swissvax :


of course, you can get the waffle weave type, use nothing but mf on your car, NO CALI WATER BLADE/NO LEATHER/NO TERRYCLOTH... only mf towels and always do one section then rinse even if you just washed the car, frequent rinsing ppl... always fold the towels and as they get dirty turn to a clean side.
