I've done a lot of research into those black rims because I wanted black ones, cheap and for my wheels to stick out more. Well they black, cheap and steel but won't stick our the tires barely more than stock. That is because if you combine the width and backspacing it only add less than 1 inch or difference then you take that number and divide by two and it come out to stick out MAYBE 1/2 inch more.

Oh and Cragar, RockCrawlers, and Unique are ALL the same just branded differently...why? no idea.

So now that I have polished aluminum wheels, what's the best stuff to put on them to keep them shiny and protected? Especially going into winter.

I like the Mickey II's as well. A buddy of mine had them on his F-150 before he sold it.

That's what I figured. I went out and bought the Mother's mag and Aluminum wheel polish. I use mothers (and occasionally maguires) for everything else so I figured I couldn't go wrong with them. Thanks for the confirmation.
