Do you have a dash cam to prove how they were driving? Otherwise I'm afraid it will be your word against theirs.

As in a record of its condition before and after? I fear even with this they'll attempt to blame you from when you picked the car up.

Yeah both

What was done in the service? I agree with Ian, I don't see how someone can curb both of them.

My dad had this a year or so back when they changed his tyres. The dealer had his wheels refurbished, no questions asked.

Hope you have a similar experience :)

Yes, in SW England.

Doubt there's any kerbs in the dealers car park?  That would be asking for trouble lol!

Sure it's not just dust from the floor or something, though why they'd lay them face down I don't know.  Unless there were 2 ST's in next to each other and wheels got accidentally swapped?

Even I haven't managed to kerb both sides yet! :laugh:

Went to dealers yestrday and they find out my alloys are sprayed with can so colour is peeling off, 

Ah, did they jetwash it after a service?  Took a load of spray paint off mine like that!
