Curb rash (Outer rim): The outer rim lips appear to be in good condition overall. Minor surface marks are visible on some wheels, but no significant curb rash damage is detected. The polished lip edges show minimal wear, only visible upon close inspection.

Curb rash (Inner rim): Not visible in the provided images. The inner rim barrel areas that can be observed through the spokes appear clean without obvious damage.

Paint peeling / Corrosion: Moderate paint peeling and clear coat deterioration is present on multiple spokes across the wheel set. On at least two wheels, paint peeling areas approximately 30-50mm in length are visible on the spoke surfaces, particularly on the inner spoke faces near the center hub area. These areas show exposed aluminum underneath and are visible from approximately 1m distance. Additional smaller areas of paint lifting approximately 10-20mm are scattered on other spokes.

White rust / Corrosion: Significant corrosion is present on the hub mounting face and center bore area of at least one wheel, as clearly shown in the detail photos. The hub face displays brown oxidation and white corrosion deposits covering approximately 60-70% of the mounting surface, extending around the lug holes and center bore. This corrosion is typical of contact with dissimilar metals and moisture exposure. Minor surface corrosion spots are also visible on some spoke faces where paint has deteriorated.

Suspected distortion: No obvious signs of rim distortion, bends, or cracks are visible in the provided images. The rim lips appear straight and consistent. However, for definitive confirmation, measurement with specialized wheel balancing and runout testing equipment is recommended, particularly given the age of these wheels (manufactured September 2006).

Special notes: These are RAYS Volk Racing CE28N forged monoblock wheels, size 16x7.0J with +48 offset and 5x114.3 bolt pattern. The rubber valve stems appear aged and should be replaced before tire mounting. Despite the cosmetic issues with paint peeling and hub corrosion, the wheels remain structurally usable. Professional cleaning of the hub mounting surfaces is recommended prior to installation. Refinishing would improve the overall appearance and protect against further deterioration. The forged construction ensures structural integrity remains intact for continued use.
