Ceramic coatings do not stop rock chips but any means, but it does help a substantial amount. Any protection for your paint is better than no protection, I will be looking into Xpel for sure though to prevent anymore! Thanks guys!!

Terrible choice for color that ruby red is a color clear coat paint which means they dye the clear then spray it so any issues with the paint buffing it is going to change the color of the paint they only did this with the ruby red and a blue color they have so those rock chips are some serious issues as far as color matching and repair hope it works out well just be careful getting that truck buffed out

My 2012 Sierra came from the factory with Michelin’s. In less than 3 years, they failed NH state inspection due to cracking (in excess of 12 inches) in the valleys between the treads. There was tons of tread still left on them. I’ll never buy that brand again. It’s all good, I wanted bigger tires anyway! Really like the Cooper Adventurer AT3.

Rock chips are going to happen, dude. That's the shitty part of buying a brand new anything: If you're going to use it regularly, it's going to get scratched, dinged, etc. I run Michelin tires on my 2014 F350 and don't notice any sort of rocks being kicked up unless I'm on a gravel road. Should have known this when you had to drive your truck and shouldn't have been surprised or as disappointed by it when it did happen because it will happen. These are your first chips but if you use your truck for work, then they are definitely not going to be your last.
