What Kind of Rims do You Guys Have?

So if I did the same thing, but clearcoated it, I wouldnt have to worry about waxing in theory. My truck is dropped 2/4 (well, its in the process)

Im in south Louisiana. It never snows here, and they never salt the roads. I dont see why you couldnt clear coat over the polish work if you wanted to. For me, I choose not to. Im waxing my truck very regular anyway. It was repainted in 2013 with a single stage paint, so I really like it look good, so I keep up with the paint job by waxing it about once a month or so. I have been putting it in some of our local car shows. It gets a lot of attention. Last weekend I parked ot next to a 2010 procharged Camaro, and a 68 super charged Shelby Mustang that has a Coyote engine. There was also a 69 IH dually truck with a Cummings in it. There was about 30 cars and trucks. There will be another car show Saturday. I want to make it there, but I am on call this weekend.

Also, I noticed your center caps are smooth. Mine have fake lugs molded into it. Is there a reason some are smooth and some have lugs? Was that GMs idea of a "refresh" after a certain year?

Yes, Ive seen both. IDK what was GMs reason for both. I guess it had something to do with trying a sales tactic.

Yes it was kind of a design refresh, what I've noticed is the earlier models used the cap with the "lug nuts" in the holes and 95 up chevys used the smooth caps. GMC used the smooth ones more years than Chevy did.

I almost kept the rims off of my 93 when I sold it. I never polished them out, but there was a lot of things I liked about the 93. My interior was blue. I really liked the seat, door panels and steering wheel set up. My 97 is a much nicer truck. I also rather the stereo set up in the 97. Also I have seen the gray interior in a 93, and IMO the blue looks a lot better. In the 97, the gray looks good. Its just so hard to get anyone to recover the seats in these trucks.
