GM Newbie here. I just bought an 07 MC SS. I was wondering about the wheels, any products out there to shine them up? Also if i remove the resonator will that throw codes?
Thanks Guys.

you could pull the strip the clearcoat and really polish them but then the upkeep is a nightmare. ppl do it with the ws6 ta rims. i wanted to try it but didnt want to ruin a perfectly fine set of wheels.

Thanks for the input guys. I think i'll just wax the wheels. I'm going to get the resonator removed and order some Flowmasters. Hopefully that will give me the sound i want.

I agree. It is a last resort if your wheels are hazed, scratched or pitted. One step before biting the bullet and buying new wheels.
