Make sure you're religious about cleaning brake dust off those. I had TTII's on my last F-body and they were pitted pretty badly, other than that no complaints. Great looking wheels on any F-body, nice choice.

that is sooooo damn true. I had the same **** happen to mine. Were you able to do anything to get rid of the pits? I've been told your able to take a very fine grit sandpaper to them. Very nice rims man, i love them!!!!! And the 315's are awesome looking!

Have fun spending hours on your knees polishing the hell out of those things

But they still look great on our cars nonetheless

those are the best rims ever.... the only thing that sucks is having to polish them everytime you wash your car but other then that they are worth the effort.

i used glass cleaner on chrome rims before, and that leaves them with a good shine....also removes brake dust, it was glass cleaner in an aerosol can though, if it helps....

yes i do... they are ok, not much traction with them. i run them at about 24PSI to get them to stick decently, but life will be quiet short I suspect - that's the price of a cheaper tire.

I polish mine with Mother's Billet Polish once every 2 months and simply use glass cleaner/microfiber on them inbetween those polishes, they shine like hell
