Default Is there a difference between 2010 & 2011 sport wheels?

I picked up my new car yesterday. Dealer had to truck it in and somehow one of the front wheels was damaged. Sales guy wanted to "have it repainted" and I said heck no, see you later. They wouldn't order a new wheel for me but offered to take a wheel/tire off a new 2010 leftover model and swap with my wheel. I wasn't 100% happy with this decision (especially since the tire was older) but from the looks of it they appear the same wheel.

Question is...is there any difference between the 2010 & 2011 Rays 19" forged wheels that come with the sport package?

None that have been brought up. This is an item that likely will stay the same, other than color, until EOL.

Pretty sure they're all the same.

No differences between the two. The issue now is that they will most likely put the damaged wheel on the other car and never tell the buyer.

True. I tried to get them to order me a new wheel and they wouldn't because it was too expensive. They tried to say it wasn't easy to spot the damage and that I shouldn't worry. Yeah...right.

Maybe the wheel they gave me was repaired too. I looks fine but I'm a little bummed about the whole attitude of the dealer.

I've learned to expect the dealers will disappoint me. It's more likely to happen when you own a 'lesser' brand. Hence why I'd never pay $90k for a GTR only to get Nissan service.
