If only you could get these in a larger size than 17 x 8. I have the same wheels on my notchback and love the look, but I could really use more rubber on rear.

I wish my wheels were that shiny. Have you polished yours? I know they are clear coated, I haven't yet figured out how to polish the fine scratches out of mine.

Yup. The factory clearcoat is really more of a pkasticized finish.

I use PlastX on them....and that's the end result.

Problem is cleaning them (like wiping off brake dust) causes all the fine scratches to come back and then they look hazy.

One reason why I might change them. Want a more maintainance free wheel.
