Default Enthusiast Stock Wheels & Shine

i have the stock wheels on my silver 2008 Enthusiast, and i am wondering if there is anything special a guy can do to make them really shine big time? doesnt Armor All (sp?) make some kind of special chrome conditioner that would really put a shine on them?

any thoughts or ideas would be appreciated!

Mike

what, nobody knows about any kind of liquid chrome stuff, or something like that, that would really put a shine on those wheels?

i got something from the auto parts store yesterday called Mothers, i believe. took it home, rubbed it on the wheels, didnt really seem to make the wheels shine better than just a regular cleaning with soapy water and a towel would do.

the guy at the store had some chrome polish, but he said unless it was chrome i wanted to shine it wouldnt do much good, and the Mothers was cheaper.

Your wheels are painted.

You fail.
