OH NO!

Aluminum wheels are really a pain. You have to polish them like crazy to keep them from oxidizing. I had them on a surburban, and I can still remember spending hours to keep them up. I would reccoment staying AWAY from aluminum wheels

:angry: I agree, they are a REAL pain to keep up. I have a set on my 66, and I now sortof regret buying them. I cannot imagine having them on a dialy driver, since I am almost obsessive compulsive when it comes to keeping my stangs clean!

painted aluminum is great... but nobody really makes chrome wheels anymore.... do they not poweder coat a clear over the polished aluminum? It would make sense..... I guess unless it turns a shade of yellew over the years.
