Make sure u wax them! Don't use micro fiber on them use a soft cotton t-shirt
So you are saying that you will scratch the paint on the wheels if you use a micro fiber cloth?

Yep! I also blow them dry so I don't scratch them. It's the only flaw to these wheels I have found so far.

There must not be any clear coat on the wheels then? Have you tried buffing them? I just ordered Novakane 6s, gloss black 20' wheels with 305 55 20 Nitto Terra Grapplers for my 2011 Platinum.

Do they stick out too far for leveled? Or look good and proportional?
They stick out 4". I like th elook but wish they didn't rub as much as they do. Maybe I should've bought smaller tires. I have 305/55/20's

305/55/20 Nitto Terra Grapplers....(great tires!). This is with a 1.5" AS level that really lifted it about 2" up front. Stock height in rear. I had to trim the air damn (spoiler) some on both sides. No rubbing now.

Yeah or move to flat ground. I usually don't rub unless i'm backing down hill while turning or turning sharp uphill. I need to move to florida.
