Of course not. I didn't mean it that way. Do what you like.

EDIT: Nice rims! I bet they are easy to clean. Are those 18's? And what's your tire size?

They're 19" rims, and yes they are a breeze to clean (which I love). I love being able to get inside the rim and actually clean the entire thing. It makes a big difference in the overall look of the car...sort of like having clean and shiny windows or something. It just gives it the car that extra little kick.

What's the tire size? I re-edited my previous post again so you probably didn't see it.

Yeah I like to clean the inside of the rims too with a toilet bowl brush and some all purpose cleaner (APC).

They're 245/35 on 19". For my next set, I'm going to go with something a little wider. The wife got friendly with a curb and damaged these bad boys about three months after I got them. The mag part bows outward, so a little wider tire would be helpful for me, especially when the wife has my car. I never park close enough to a curb where I might scrape.

I use a rag specifically for use with my rims only, and that rag never touches the paint (even though I always clean it after each use). I go between tire cleaner and regular car soap to clean them, depending on what I have in stock in my car cleaning supplies.

Yeah the higher you go the less protection you'll have against curbs. That sucks your wife hit them. Hopefully they are not sore to the eyes. I think my size 235/40/18 does okay with curb rash, but I never scraped them before.

As far as cleaning wheels. Don't get me started!

I would like to add the Advan RGII as photoshopped onto my car. I would love to get them but they don't fit.

I love the TE-37 and i'm in the market for new wheels. Sadly, nothing good fits. It's a conspiracy, all the wheels in the size I need are cheap and ugly.
