I have been reading the several threads about lacquer damage and the fact that MB now replace with new wheels.
My car is 3 weeks old and the wheels are all fine but I have noticed that the tyre balance weights are fitted to the outside of the rim. When the wheels need re balancing or new tyres are fitted isn't it inevitable that the lacquer will be damaged by removing/refitting these weights?
Any other owners had experience of this?
