FYRARMS and striper: Skimming back to the start of the thread I see something about the McKee's 37 Wheel Coating you guys were discussing. Can I used that product on my polished CCW Classics? It seems like I am always fighting water spots and brake dust and was wondering if that product might be worth a try. Any suggestions?
If I knew of this product when I still had my Classics, I would have given it a shot. The McKee's is a clear coating you just wipe on, you can't even see it on the rag and you use it very sparingly. I was surprised how little I used to do my new wheels inside and outside. If I lived in Ocala I might still have my Classics because I wouldn't have potholes periodically hurting my rims. I'm familiar with the area since my folks used to live about a 1/2 mile down the road from Don Garlits.
they look great Jeff! Seems we are now ‘brothers of the 14 spoke’ wheels!
I’m loving my TSW’s, care already is so much easier than the chrome.
I appreciate the compliment, thank you. I also wanted to mention, the TSW was also in my consideration in the same finish. However I don't think of them as 14 spokes, they are IMO 7 split spokes. As of today I only have one full day of driving on them, maintenance has yet to be tried out. I try not to be a slave to it.
Forgot to post this bigger pic. The brushed/cleared finish works really well with the blue paint. I should be able to snap some pics this weekend after lowering and installing the Wilwoods.
I like the satin finish, looks very good. I guess your car isn't still settled down on its suspension? Any info on that motor in the background?

Small world...I live off of 484 the opposite side of 75...about 6 miles west of Don Garlits.
