I had two fronts changed on mine, and asked the garage to be super-careful because the rims are laquered diamond-cut metal finish, not painted. They fitted the new tyres without a single mark, so I was a happy boy! I have so far avoided all kerbs but I'm dreading making a costly mistake. I understand that if the diamond cut surfaces get damaged the wheels need to be re-finished on a lathe, and there are only a finite number of times this can be done...
