new wheels... detail experts please chime in.

Carmine85 · 08-11-2008, 07:26 PM

Just got a new set of wheels today and I wanted to protect them in some sort of way before I mounted them. I was thinking of maybe putting a sealant on and a coat of wax or so. I have a CG sealant (not sure what it is but it isn't jetseal) and the CG wheel wax. Would this be an appropriate way to protect the wheels? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
