Im pretty good at polishing my own wheels when needed, once u do them once or twice real good, u wont ever have to go back and polish them like u did the first time. If it rains on them just simply go over them with a shammy or micro towel thats wat I do. Im on the process of polishing my five stars 17's b./c there bad, at the end results end up looking clean.

yeah it sucks but what I do right after I polish them I apply a coat of wax so the rain doesn't stick. it'll keep them clean a little longer.
