2008 Tahoe Z71 wheels are oxidizing along the edges at tire interface area (where weights were) but worst is one has a history of slow leaks. Now not so slow at 10 pounds in a week. It have been repaired once and the techie said he had to wire brush the corrosion out of the wheel's bead line. It lasted for a bit but based on the crud on the wheel edge it seems perhaps the is some seepage there again.
So is it a better route to get refinished, including the inside bead surface, or just go for a replica replacement?
Are replicas ok? Any particular brand or vendor?
Or perhaps look for take offs and pass these along to someone interested in cleaning them up themselves?
