Didn't see this article posted yet, hopefully I haven't duplicated. The Maverick starts at about the 8:32 mark on the video

Chrome is King in my book, give my right nut for a real set of Crager SS made to fit the maverick.
Love your truck!!! That Atlas Blue is the best color ford's ever offered on the maverick IMO.
Check with your dealer. I would assume so unless they find something that would explain why its that way. Warranty is 3 year 36,000 bumper to bumper, I assume paint defects are included in that.
MY22 here, no cracks or pitting, 16,000 miles. I did have something hit the windshield maybe 10 months ago going down the interstate, nothing real close to me but 1 car probably 50 yards ahead, didn't see anything but then something hit the windshield, it was loud. I knew it would be cracked...

I can't see any damage on the wheel from your pic but like others have said, that much weight to get the wheel/tire balanced is totally NUTS. I would assume its the tire not the wheel causing that much weight to be added.
