as u know new england is gettin all this snow!!!!!... earlier this week was like spring weather so im like ppppft not like we can get more snow so i put my rims bac on. now its snowing which = no traction cause of tires... but my question is...... will the salt really eat at my crome lip???????? my friend told me that once in a while if u get some salt from the salt its ok jus make sure u wash it not to long afterwards.... i jus rinsed them with warm water but still a lil worried bout that salt theory... their tenzo-r's so i would think the chrome lip would hold ok ... please any advice would be appreciated!

 

Call the place that you bought the rims from and ask them.

 

If they are a polished chrome lip your more than likely ok to rock those rims on salty roads. If they are chrome dipped or powder coated, I would use caution and do what your friend told you to do. Wash them. Well, either way I would listen to him, and try to keep them clean. On a side note. I understand your impatiens with winter weather, however, here in Wisconsin I live by one rule. Five rains after the last snow fall before your rims go on. That way you know there isn't any salt still polluting the roadways!

 

thanks for the replys!!!... yeah i guess ill carry a bottle full of warm water with me all the time to spray em down .. thanks again
