Having been there w white wheels... Make sure you're using as low a
Dust pad as possible (I found hawks were good at this), and also make
To do a heavy wax or even a clear gloss topcoat (this!!!) as dust will tint your
Awesome white fast.

These look great and I'm really pumped to see intstalled.

I have Akebono brake pads on my car and it gives off a white dust...Hawks makes good pads too...have u thought about adding the Nismo decal on one of the spokes? I think that'll look hot...will add a little contrast to the wheels..otherwise may be over kill with the white..

I just got a boner from this idea. as long as the little dimples dont cause any problems this would look crazy good.

Tell the shop to work harder and get these on your car!
