I do.... I use a chrome-specific cleaner from Turtle Wax and then put a coat or two of my normal wax, Meg's NXT.

I use Mother Chrome Polish every month followed by a couple coats of Poorboys Wheel sealant.

Yes. Without a doubt. Now call Danielson and tell him wax-on, wax-off.

anyway, yeah, you definately need to wax them, if you dont, they'll start to pit and rust on you, I've seen it happen, not to me tho.
