Well you could try and i have done this and it worked throw a fit in the showroom about them not covering them right in front of customers and when they think they are losing or gonna lose a sale they might just fix it i had a problem with my bike and they didnt want to fix it guess what they did but you have to be willing to make a stink in public but it just might work

Hmmm 06 with 5k miles.
Are you sure it's not just dust on those wheels?
