Well, the EPA Superfund Site polishing shop in Denvah said they would nevah do another set of these wheels. The cost was expensive but the results speak for themselves. The rims are of course BBS CH 18x8.5s polished inside and out and the tires are Kumho MX 235/40-18s that came with the rims compliments of Will Griffin of KC. I have nevah run 18s before but the lower profile definitely compliments my stiffer suspension. I may have to run 18s at the track as well.

Default I use a product called Wheel Wax...

I have had pure polished aluminum rims before so I understand the maitenance aspect. The Wheel Wax is new to me and a simple hose off with nozzle seems to work just fine.

Default I used a product called Zoop Seal on the polished parts of my wheels.

I haven't put the wheels back on the car yet though. Search the Detailing forum for the results. LI-S4 and myself have done it.
