White wheels [look great when clean and] suck [when dirty].

Fixed it for you Dan...

FYI, they are dirty way more then when they are clean.... Listen to Dan... Its like polishing, you accept it... Or reject it...

That is why I did my rims in Silver, they still show dirt and grime, but not as bad as White.

Ride, eat, wash, sleep and repeat...   :good2:

I love the white rims, and don't mind the cleaning part.  :wacko3:

I would like to polish the edges and tape them off, then powder coat the rest black, just like Jake (jvb_ca on the forum) did.

Looks close to stock, but still bitchen, IMO.
