General Alloy bubbling

[rgc610]

I haven't seen anything on the forums about this but when I was looking at Fiat Bravo's, everyone I viewed had the paint bubbling on the alloys. This off put me at first but literally every Bravo I viewed had this so I settled when buying my car.

Does anyone else have this problem? Thinking of having an alloy refurb, but 50 quid a wheel is quite expensive for something I'll end up kurbing

Yup I have it. Alloy refurb is on my to do list. Unfortunate but it's not bad really. Not just fiat alloys have bubbling issues, it's the salt and acids on the British roads from horrible winters and **** summers.
