The wheels were hand washed and almost immediately I started noticing the clear coat peeling along the edge where the black of the wheels meets the chrome. After a few more washes I noticed what looked like large air bubbles / blisters in the clear coat. With the COVID restrictions and weather I delayed going to the dealer. I got the wheels evaluated by the dealership in the beginning of March 2021 and had them all replaced. By that time the blisters had broken away and flaked off. The damaged areas were clearly evident and the dealership didn't fuss at all. I will monitor the new wheels closely and update as needed here. Fun car and no other issues. Be safe!
