I sorta regret not getting brushed because this polished finished is going to be a monster to keep pretty. I already tried aluminumwheel polish. It's a chore.
Yeah I'm a firm believer in the 5spoke too. Maintaining full polished is a pain. Try meguiairs nxt all metal polish and use it outside on a warm sunny day. works really well

I think these look the best of all the rims, simple, not too busy, very classy look.

Took more pics today. Nothing really special but a little better background than the first set. Next time will be even better.







More pics in my gallery.

please get back to me if u have any important information thank you *adam*
I don't have experience since I have had the GS since only May.
I did upgrade the system in the SC300 I had. I kept the stock head unit but added a 10 inch sub in the trunk, changed the stock 8 inch sub in the rear window both powered by a Punch amp. I had no electrical problems at all...none. I want to add a sub to my BS too so I hope there are no issues to consider.
