Default Mesh Wheels SUCK + a few additions

Just had to take the car in to replace the radio and YES it was raining...drove back had to clean and dry off the car, back it into the garage and make sure the wheels were cleaned off from road dirt....WHAT A PAIN! Luckily I had help.

Also, some pics of a few new used additions (can't keep up with Lee on the high priced items )
Mats are front and back, and a few pics of the wheels after Wheel Technique treatment. Overall, the car looks better with the molded lips imho

I agree with you....mesh are a PITA to clean....thats why i went with 5-spoke....great move getting the kids involved....next thing will be having them change oil and filter on a regular basis. These will be the next gen of CL members.

Damn....I miss my Rezax IIs already

For those people who don't know, Rezax II is probably one of the most difficult wheel to clean
