New Wheels a Few Questions

I just got my IForged Essens today...wow thay look awsome. I will post a few pics in the next day or so. My question is before I mount them I want to seal the metal as best I can to help with cleaning, dust ...ect... Any suggestions?

Wait until they're mounted since:

1. whatever you apply may be partially removed during the mounting process
2. you don't want to apply anything that will reduce good beading.

I wasnt planning on waxing the area where the tires are mounted. Only the center and lip....both outside and inside.

any suggestions on good products for this? I just got my Iforged Aeros put on as well, and the lips definitely need more attention than my old Champions.
