Where'd you get your wheels? Every dealer I talk to says the Boss 330's in silver are backorded with no ETA!

Nice! All you need to do is drop it to make those tires look bigger. Easy for me to say, I'm saving up for a drop as well!

Just a word of advise with those wheel. Don't let the polished lip get to dirty or you will never get it clean. Don't let brake dust settle on them either. No clear coat on the lip. I have had these wheels on my truck for only about 6 months now and the lip looks like shit. Especially over the winter. No matter what I do, I can't clean them. Even took them to a detailer and he said he couldn't do anything. I am thinking of having them powder coated. If i where you I would get he polished lip clear coated while they are in good shape...

I some compound on a microfiber and got them where they are now. Then put 4 coats of wax. But I agree. Keeping them clean is the only way. The clearcoat is a good idea. I am going to have to look into that. Gun metal would look very nice!

Fishy is trying to be humble. Trust me, if it is at all possible to make those wheels look good, he can do it.:cool:

Did you get the new or used? If used what condition where they in?

Chrome rims are a ***** to keep clean! Well, they are a ***** to keep them shiny atleast. Which is why im painting my 6s white w/ a chrome lip in a month.

Just polish them every few months and you're good with chrome. Not a bad trade off to me :)

They were in pretty good shape when I got them. But they needed polished up. Some rubbing compound and they shine!! Just washed it today, just used car wash
Soap on the wheels and they
Still shine. Wax is holding up pretty well.

Dirt road=cleaning is pretty pointless as nothing stays clean for more that 30 seconds! :High 5:
