Had it happen to me before and will never buy diamond cut lacquered wheels.

Would love a set of MV6's for my preface liftm :(

yep they are later style MV6 alloys just as they have diamond cut the faces they have lost the flat edge on bottom of the spoke looking like the elite alloys now tho

ive got a set of 10spoke mv6 alloys wanting a refurb (when weather warmer) as u say a single chip & within a month nearly all the laq pealed off!! better of not lacqureing them & just keep on top of polishing them!! :y

i may have a set of nearly mint later elite 5spoke 17s up for grabs but calnt post them as i havent enuf posts yet :(
