Nice wheels. But one thing I've notice about the wheel design, dod you notice the groove behind the spokes? Every time you wash the car, water will get trapped in there. When you drive the car w/o wipping off the water. The trapped water just splash out on your fenders and doors.

I had wheels like that, I'm giving you my personal experience.

Zaubers are designed like that...very poor design. I just have a sponge that I put in there when washing...not too big a deal.

zaubers are kinda hard to wash... especially when trying to wash the lip right by the spoke. it gets in the way and i try so hard to try and not get a scratch... just my experience with the gettins.
