rim question
i was thinking about getting these for my truck:
http://store.summitracing.com/partde...5&autoview=sku i never bought aluminum rims before, always went with chrome, but i am tired of the rusting and peeling. will these prevent that since the finish is "natural" instead of polished? |

Re: rim question
Eventually the clear coat will start to deteriorate on those rims but it will take a long time if you take care of them. I would also try ebay if you are set on getting those rims because I have seen them sold by alot of wheel dealers.
