Look good. Depending on how "inexpensive" they are I would go for them. Not to be a dick, but how are you getting away with posting wheel mods in this section? I can't even write an opinion without someone jumping down my throat saying, "Your opinion doesn't count, you have less than 30 posts." But, the wheels...do it to it.

I have almost 700 posts and I'm still trying to figure that out....
But now that you have over 30 but less than 60, youre opinion only counts once a week; and thats only on the third Wednesday of every month. Sorry.

I have had them for over 2.5 years now and they are pretty easy to clean. I spray em down with a dilute simple green mix after I wet them. Let em sit for a couple minutes then spray em off. Then hit em with a high pressure mist stream from a fire hose type spray nozzle and they are squeaky clean.

They are simple to clean. They are painted centers and have clearcoated lips. Never water spots, never need polishing. I probably got more compliments on that set of wheels than any other brand I've owned so far.
