polish? arent the ruff racing wheels all clearcoated no matter what finish they come in. Well maybe except for the chrome, but ?? if chrome id use a mother's/meguiars chrome cleaner...Simple as that...and dont ever use degreaser on any wheels, too risky too harmful to the wheel.

sorry to get off subject,, but how do you llike the ruff's? i was toying with getting a set, 18" and 19" staggered, but the fact that its technicaly not the right bolt pattern kinda scared me off. do you have any pics of the car, love to see it!

I have the 278's on my GTO...I know the lips on mine are not clear coated. I didn't think any of their wheels had clear coating...except for maybe on the painted centers.

soap and water is best, and a little elbow greese, http://www.clanocdelta.com/z28/resized%20pics.JPG

hub rings are your friend no issues here, all the way to 158 mph

I use a cloth and soap and water.... Then some blue polish that works awesome. I just jacked the car on and slapped them on..no fitment issues what so ever.
