thanks dude, the wheels i got are the ones on the front of my car in my sig....... not very easy to see but i decided to dump that idea for one.... i was gonna ahve to buy them off my brother..... for two 2 of them have good tires and 2 dont, one is bent and theres only 2 caps and only one that actually stays on

but yeah i spend my day polishing the chrome my moms BF drives a semi and he bought some chrome polish from a vendor at a truck stop, it comes in like a shampoo bottle......holy  does this shiznit work man! this stuff it tells you to wipe on with a rag then immediately wipe off and to not let dry it made a hell of a difference shined those old 14" hubcaps right up

:eek:

It's when I hear about rust like that it makes me glad my Tbird is from California :D . I see Fox Tbirds at the wreakers near my house where the lower quarters are so rotted out that I can poke my fingers through 'em.
