Leak Problem with DICASTAL Aluminum Wheels

in the past year I have had two of the four OEM wheels on my '04'BigSky cause the tire to go flat due to a leak in the 'face' of the Wheel (between 2 spokes).
Has anyone one else had simular problems? Is this a Warranty Item? Has there been a 'Recall' of these wheels??

An update... I contacted the link to Tredit Tire that was provided on this website. Immediately got a email back from the Warranty manager (Kelly). After filling out the correct forms he directed me too and returning the paperwork I got a email from him letting me know they were replacing all four wheels at no cost to me (they were unable to match the Dicastal wheels). The new set of wheels showed up a week later with prepaid ups labels to put on the boxes so I could send the defective wheels to them. BTW... I had also sent emails to Dicastal and Keystone,... didn't get a response from either.
Thanks to info I got from this forum and Kelly Weidner @ http://www.tredittire.com/... I now have a new set of wheels on my 04 Big Sky.

We had problems with Aluminum wheels by Tredit tire and wheel. Keystone took care of everything. There has been lots of problems with some Aluminum wheels. The bad ones were made in China, I replaced them with Aluminum Alcoa's and you can see and feel the difference. The Aluminum Wheel problem was well know on the Cambridge. We were warned prior to our failures. But we run the Pressure Pro System and it let us know that we were losing air. GBY....
