I have watched a few videos of the black coating being damaged during tire replacement.
Look at the machine the tire shop is using. The lip of the rim and coating can be easily damaged.

This is not specific to Ford. This can and does happen to all wheels. Dont take your car to some rando shop for tire work.

Yes, just want people to be aware that the rims can be easily damaged. Look for a reputable shop. Even look at their equipment. No old school way of removing tires.
