I got mine from a Autonation dealer and here's a short description: "Tire and Wheel Protection
Covers the repair or replacement of your tires and or wheels due to damage from a road hazard. Includes the cost of mounting, balancing, valve stems and labor."

A curb jumped out and got my passenger front rim last week. Doesn't look too bad, I will wait till they come down on price on ebay, maybe in the spring.

Does anyone know the paint code for the normal ('Sterling Silver') SS wheel? Can I get some touchup from the dealer? I hope it's not the same situation as Midnight Silver.

What is this tire and wheel protection? How much does it cost and is it available at chevy dealers?

It's one of the packages the finance guys try to sell you, gap insurance, maint program, bla bla bla

Where should I get my elminator? Is there a link someone can give me so I can buy one? And is installation easy?

Sam, you are in LA. Theres a ton of Wheel Repair places there. It won't cost much to repair the minor scratch you have. Some are mobile and can do the job at your workplace or home. I had worse rash on polished wheels (not camaro) and cost me $125 and it looked as good as new when done. Don't sweat it.

i got the tire wheel protection, any rim that scratches i am allowed to trade it in for a new one. i got this because a guy came in and had his rim scrated from a pothole and he said they replaced the rim for free

CJ Man · 11-18-2009, 06:07 PM

Dude that sucks. The other day i was driving home. It was late at night and really windy and a freaking Tumbleweed came out of no where and hit the front of my car. Scratched up my whole front bumper and hood on the driver side. I only had the car for 2 weeks.

Cmaro214 · 11-18-2009, 07:49 PM

and how expensive were those again???

Johnny1 · 11-18-2009, 07:55 PM

I know I'm in the process of ordering a 2010 2SS 6spd. Camaro with those same wheels and tires and its a $4,680.00 option four the four (yeks!)

Sam Friedman · 11-18-2009, 09:13 PM

expensive, but they will be fixed! If I have to will it I will get them fixed, it was a freak thing I ddnt even hear or feel the rim touch anything, and its not such a big deal, but its my baby and it deserves the best.

v6sonoma · 11-18-2009, 09:30 PM

It sucks! I JUST hopped a curb and F'ed mine up too. I feel like such an idiot. Not even 1100 miles yet.

Rogue Leader · 11-18-2009, 11:52 PM

I hate to sound like a shill,m but anyone in the NY area who has curbed a wheel needs to call these guys:

www.nyrimfix.com

I JUST got my rim back this morning and honestly it looks so good, better than when it was new. I almost want to have the re-polish all my wheels. Only $125 and well worth it.

If you contact them tell Sean that Tom with the 2010 Camaro sent you.
