Picked this up over the weekend and just got around to lightly cleaning it with some soapy water and a brush.

Noticed several marks (curb rash?) and was wondering if theres anything one could do about it to fix or at least improve it?


For $50.00, it didn't seem like I could really go wrong.

The spots are clear coat failure. Looks as though it has been through plenty of car washes too with the amount of scratches on the wheel. You will be able to polish it up some to remove many of the scratches with polishes that you use on paint. Should look pretty good from 10 ft. away. $50.00? Such a deal!

Thanks for the tip!

That's the plan, just need to find one more. Want to still have a stock size set for the rear. Thinking about leaving the front at 8 and getting the rears opened up to 10.
