i know you trust the shop.. But have a strong feeling they are baking off paint.. and those wheels cant take it. Some can.. some cant.

Nissan says PC, but know of some people cracking rims.
PC says Nissan, and say they do not heat the wheels past 200.

Regardless, not dealing with either companies again.

There is no process to PC wheels below 200 - unless you're PCing with frozen peas.

The National Highway Transportation Safety Administration (NHTSA) Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) has opened a case file on cracked Nissan wheels. Go to this link:

http://www-odi.nhtsa.dot.gov/cars/pr...fectsearch.cfm

and type "PE06050" in the window below where it says "NHTSA Action Number" to get the details.

Or search by vehicle (06 Nissan 350Z) to find "EA07005" which is the new investigation.

Thoughts?
