they look nice, and they are a major pain in the *** to keep spotless, as you have noticed

Get a bottle of the heavy and medium grade Heavy Metal polish from www.BrilexSolutions.com , they will be easier to maintain.

your car would look 100% better without the windshield banner

Ya, I still have my set of prostars. Will be put on the car for the track and etc. But was not to keen on driving on the skinnies on the street. Been there done that. I wanted something different on the street.


And I would like to lower the car. Def agree with you on that one. But when I have the prostars on with the 28inch rears, lowering it would cause some problems.
