That's the thing. If it's the coating failing, why aren't all 4 wheels peeling?
Front wheels vs. Rear?
On the left side, the front and rear wheels clear is peeling. Right side looks brand new
Could also be that. The left front wheel looks like it's been refinished
Pay up the ass for one of thoseShould only buy new BMW Obviously.

Folks skip the profanity. Substituting gibberish for part of the word is bypassing the profanity filter.
I have faith everyone here can make their point without using vulgarity.

This is a CPO? Does CPO cover rims? If CPO I think you may have an argument that it's neglect from the prior owner or poor repair since they're both on the same side of the vehicle.
I'm 100% sure that the wheels were lot repaired poorly.
CPO doesn't cover cosmetic issues. The cars still under factory warranty. I might take it in to another BMW dealership before factory warranty expires. It's unlikely they flagged vin or made notes for something so trivial.
Well, things just go worse. It looks like the dealership scrapped off the paint on one of the rear wheels. I took pictures of all 4 wheels before I took the car in. Zoom in on the first picture and look at the two spokes in between the valve stem cap. You see nothing that looks like scrapped off the clear coat.

Here you are, being an honest customer, advising that all you've done is apply ceramic coating which is completely innocuous and causes no harm to have them treat you like this. It FORCES you to lie when you're dealing with unscrupulous or ignorant people.
It's not a lie to omit information that bears no relevance.
"The finish on my wheels is peeling and I feel that this should be covered under my new car warranty."
It's likely that they would have given him a different excuse for denial. He just gave them an easy out.
If the wheels were recon'd prior to purchase, it's not up to BMW to fix it. You could contact a wheel repair service to see how much they charge to take care of that. https://www.rimdocmd.com/
I know BMW won't cover wheels that have been refinished. I'm not 100% sure of those wheels have been refinished.
I had these wheels on my 2020 5 series touring. I ended up having 3 wheels replaced under warranty here in the UK for failing lacquer and corrosion to the diamond cutting as a result in the 13 months/25,000miles that I owned it. Worth adding my wheels were also ceramic coated with Carbon Collective Platinum Wheels.
