Torque Thrusters ll Chrome or Polished?

I'm probably going to buy a set of 16 X 8's for my son. The dealer said to use 7 3/4 offsets so they can be rotated.

Are the polished ones easy to keep up?

Which ones do you have?

Alot of people here have chrome. Polished are suppost to be a PITA to keep clean.

There is something streetrod guys us to keep the polished shiney. Can't remember the name of it though.

I don't like chrome because IMO its TOO much bling. Plus what are you going to do when it pits and chips? Buy new wheels because it costs too much to rechrome. Polished stays that way. If something happens its easy to work out.

I ran polished Weld wheels for ~12 years on my 70 SS. They aren't THAT bad to take care of. Just some mothers aluminum polish and elbow grease. It isn't any more difficult than putting on and taking off wax.
