Default Peeling Paint on Painted Z-Force Wheels

So I get out of my 09 Z06 the other day and notice the driver side front wheel has the black paint peeling off around the center cap and a small area on one spoke. I'm not sure what caused this as I haven't used anything on them other than wheel cleaner rated for painted wheels.

NOTE: these were painted from the supplier and not an after the fact job.

What's the easiest way to fix this? I'm thinking I can just re-paint those areas as it will only be a short term solution. I'm thinking of having all 4 rims stripped and powder coated black so as to keep them looking the same. I'm afraid repairing one will leave it looking off.

Thoughts?

I'm wondering if you ever resolved this as I am considering these wheels... Did Z Force step up for you??

I got side tracked by work and haven't followed up. I just sent a PM to corvette-wheels which is where the wheels were purchased. I'll let you know what I find out.
