is it pretty easy to clean off a glossy rim?? that crap is a pain to get off mine, i have to hand scrub every rims to get it off, i use tire dressing to make it look gloss black but it only lasts a few days before it looks like *****

Hey can you post pics of your wheels? If you are gonna change them, I may be interested in trading for my stockers....

I have been wanting to throw black wheels on it.
