Cleaning Street Lites, PITA? The Truth?
So I am looking to blow some cash on a set of Street Lites this Spring after the stock gfx removal. (Black Anodized 17 inch)
My car is garaged from Nov-March and drives about 2-3k per year.
How often do you BS Street Lite owners have to polish your rims?
After every car wash?? What do you do?? Please enlighten me on the process and details, I don't need another "process" running the little time I have free as is in the day. However, I do love these rims and am willing as long as it is not straight ridiculous.
Please share your experience for someone in my position.
Thanks!

I dont think you would have to polish them anymore than you would any other wheel. I have 15" street lites and I dont polish them after every wash. I polish mine before car shows which is maybe twice a year, but my car isnt my dd. But with the black anodized I would think you would only have to worry about the lips and machined parts of the wheels which is no big deal imo.
