yeah they are 19"'s with 325/30's on the back.
Rotors are rusty after the wash and no braking to clean them up. I will get some cleaner pic's - was just excited to have wheels mounted!

so whats the trick? You scrub your car spotlessless clean, chamois it off, dry the wheels, and everything looks awesome. Except you notice the rotors are rusty. so you drive a bit, brake off the rust, and your wheels look dirty. Who knows how to avoid this?

Sears leaf blower, $65. Cut off the tip by half to about 2 feet long and duct tape the tip so that it doesn't scratch your car accidentally. Use it to dry the car and the wheel after wash. I've been using it for 5 plus years. Something similar to this model:

Thanks Cannga - i have a leaf blower so i will try that. ECS i think my next trick is lowering the car. The 325 rears are nice and fat and fill things out in the horizontal plane. Lowering will reduce the gap and make it look tighter

Make sure you duct tape the tip so you don't damage the paint accidentally. This is a great trick that I used to blow the whole car after each wash - for me much better than wiping with a dry towel.

BTW, you have great taste in wheel . Mine is below - older and heavier and the very first set of HRE P40, in 11/2007.

Cann,

Love the front Lip! Mine is actually on its way right now. Can't wait to have it painted and installed with my TA side skirts.

The front lip is the Techart 1 lip. Unfortunately so expensive but truly the best and most beautiful.

I hate to spend so much for something I consider totally cosmetic but in this case the stock Turbo lip looks so weak to me, and bothered me so much that I had no choice. Got lucky though and bought mine at a big discount (second hand but un-used).
