This is the reason I dont have them. I like the looks of them, but I used to have a '79 Trans Am, and can never forget how much of a PITA those honeycombs were to keep clean.

I actually preferred the late Gen2 rim over the BBS wheels. I didn't want to be constantly cleaning brake dust out of all those nooks and crannys.

Chromed, with a good coat of was/polish and it real easy. Well, at least with EBC greesn it is! :2tu:

Then again, keeping that good coat of was/polish on them takes a bit of time! :p

Black chrome with a nice clear coat :) It's still a pain but not nearly as bad as polishing billet wheels.

Thank goodness I had lots of time on my hands this afternoon. 30 minutes later, presto, a fantastic looking set of wheels. :) I actually prefer them when they have a light coating of brake dust on them, as they have a "gunmetal" color to them. :laugh:
