where are you located. Another possible option would be to get the wheel refurbished/repaired. Depending on where you are located, local members to you may be able to recc someone close to you...

They are pretty small to finish, but it still upsets me. These were there at the time of delivery or when I had the alignment done at the dealer. Only have 350 miles on the car and it was not hit from a rock, it's two very small nicks between the spokes on the near the area were the stem comes out of the wheel, but not on that section, the next one over. I can't imaging two small rocks hitting 2.5" apart in the same spot, just can't see that happening. I didn't notice until I was detailing the wheels today. I am sure the dealer will tell me to pound sand.

Can the run-flats be remounted? I may just purchase a new wheel and mount the tire on the new wheel.
