Factory polished wheels have clear coat on them. Keep the brake dust washed off and you never need to polish them.

19' inch rims over the 18' inch rims
Is there anybody who has a picture of the 19' inch rims that are available for an extra $ 470.00?? And does anyone know what type of tire comes with that 19' rim? I'm not a big fan of the standard 18' inch rims with the all season tires. I've looked for pictures of the rims but have had no luckl.
Thanks!!!!! I appreciate your help! Eddie Ordered 1 LT Imperial Blue Metallic Automatic transmission |

My brother's C6 has polished aluminum rims; I put the occassional coat of polish on them and make sure to wash them regularly and NEVER let brake dust to accumulate on them, and no problems.

I have them on my SS/SC and as long as you keep the brake dust from not caking on they look great

I've got them on my C5 Vette and no problem. Just wash them and keep away from curbs.
