Exactly. To make them shine better, strip the clearcoat and take them to a pro polisher or get them chrome plated. You can't do anything to them from the factory.

I'm running factory polished wheels. The clear coat on them was a bit hazy. Used some polish and a finish sealer and they improved significantly. Start with Duragloss 652, follow with DG111 then top with DG 951. BIG improvement!!!!
ps..... do the same on the car for a great shine!!!! |

Try Wheel Wax -- great stuff- helps to resist brake dust - safe for the polished 20's - last and last - and keeps that polished look. If you have a Discount Tire in your area, they carry it - around $16/

I used Rejex on all my wheels. I happen to have a set of Stock SS wheels on my 2LT with RS.
I put on 6 coats of the stuff this winter. It holds up real well. But I think anything over 3 is overkill. |
