If your exhaust tips are oxidized (or coated in exhaust "dirt"), you will likely just need to use some minimally abrasive pads (like Scotchbrite) from your local hardware store and some good ole fashioned elbow grease which is available on your local arms.

i used some stuff called never dull i think.. still needs to be shined up more.. didnt do a good job on shining the tips yet.. haha.. but here are the pictures of the wheels.. this will be the last few pictures i post.. next time i post, the car will be lowered.. probably tm.. haha =P jp.. hopefully by the end of next week..

i got the wheels from an older guy who had a sc430 he had bought from southern cali.. he and his wife wanted some stock wheels.. so we trade straight up.. with nothing on top!!! .. one hell of a deal for me if you ask me.. but end the end.. they were happy.. i was happier!

Yealooks like no BBK for you unless you run a spacer. You can use a set front and back anyway. Maybe a 15mm might help.
