polished aluminum
what is everyone using to protect it ? no clear coat
i have my gta wheels and i find myself polishing them every week to keep up with them and then 2 days later they look like crap again... i tried using some meguiars nxt on them and it didnt seem to do anything, they get really bad when it rains out... any help would be appreciated, as i am getting frustrated with them lol

welp , your getting what happens when you drive with polished rims in the rain , they look crappy . Ive driven the ta with e boyds in the rain twice and they look like crap after and have to be polished, either dont drive in the rain , accept the fact they they will look like crap if you drive in the rain , or get some zoop seal for them . Also you could polish them up and put carnuba wax on them to make them a little easier to clean .

Meguiars spray detailer with a microfiber towel after it rains.
I polish mine every couple weeks or so with Mothers Billet polish. and they still look brand new.

I also heard Zoop seal does a good job at sealing up polished parts.http://www.zoops.com/zoopseal.asp
