leave the tint on!!

Well, if you already have the lip and fogs... do those immediately. After that, the rear brakes would probably be the best choice.

I like them, Michael. If the OZ Superturismos came in multi-piece forged setup, I would've gotten multiple spokes like this too. These look good though.

speaking of cleaning multi-spoke wheels, have u guys bought those brushes made for cleaning wheels? i bought one at pep boys and it works great for multi spokes, you just slide it in between the spokes and rub back and forth a few times and that gets all the brake dust off!

Wish I could say I could use those, but when I clean my wheels myself, I use a microfiber towel, cuz of the paint. Otherwise, I know many people that use those. Just be careful not to be too harsh when using them, some people have experienced the brush scraping (cuz they were careless) the finish on their rims. Gotta be a little gentle with them.
