Welcome to the club...word of advice before putting them on throw some sealant on them bad boys...it will make clean up so much easier...believe me you'll wanna do it...polishing them sucks but it is so worth it...

I want CCW's sooo bad. I have the cash for them + a blower but with college coming up next year, I cant justify it.
Make sure you post pictures when you get them mounted.

they are awesome wheels. i have seen them on a SRM,
and i was drooling. but that polishing stuff, SUCKS.
i had polished aluminum wheels on my truck,
and man, they were a bitch to keep clean.
take "ls2goat"advice and get them sealed.

Here is a sneek pic. Almost done installing all the Pedders Parts. The rear fenders definately need rolled or cut with the 1/2" Drop Pedders.

Use Mothers Billet Polish on the outside lips and spokes-- it's the best. Use a Mothers Powerball Mini to polish the insides w/ Power Metal Polish. Rejex helps, but not too much. Wenol Metal Polish works very well on stains and leaves a protective layer on the aluminum.
Get yourself a pair of good gloves for polishing, they lessen cuts and bruises.

Looks great! You have good taste! You do not need to roll or cut the fenders. With my Pedders 5/16" raise springs, I have plenty of clearance. I bet with the Pedders no drop springs, you would be fine as well. Get you some locking lug nuts of different varieties if you haven't done so already! Josh99ta will agree with me on this one!

I hate 5/16" Raise Springs. IMO they look like crap. I have the Pedders
1/2" drop rears. Perfect look for this car with the Pedders 1" Drop fronts. I have an appointment for an alignment next week. They are also cutting the rear fenders. I can barely get my pointer finger in between the tire and the lip.

No problem! Thanks! I had my reservations about them as well, but needed a solution for the rubbing that didn't involve rolling or cutting the fenders. The 5/16"s are actually settling in nicely and look pretty good. Post up the pics after you get the work done!

Does anyone ever get CCW's with a high polish and clear coat? I would not want to fear getting my rims wet and having them stain...it would become just another thing to have to always maintain...a hassle. But they do look damn good.

Step 1. Buy them
Step 2. Don't Drive in the Rain

That looks sick bro!...Imma have to go with a no drop pedders package on mine most likely :(....Im going to have about 100lbs in the trunk at all times and I like to run it everynow and then...So Im guessing rolling fenders and no drop pedders and I should be fine...but damn, that 1" in front and 1/2" out back looks damn good!

0" Drop Rears & 3/8" Drop Fronts will look good too.
I have nothing in my trunk (i.e. Spare, Fuel Brace, Jack, Hitch) just carpet, so I went with the this set up.

Yes! Mine literally look like they have been submersed in a bucket of muddy water mixed with sand after driving in the rain here in FL!

Thats actually a very accurate description. I didn't realize how much sand/crud there was on the road and in the rain until I got polished wheels. Its a lot of upkeep for sure but well worth it.
