^a new set every year???? whoa, i dont think they are gonna get that fucked up. im from santa rosa, it rains like once a year, and when it does, it never really rains that hard. i dont think water is gonna ruin them, we dont get any harsh weather. plus i dont got anywhere to put them, i live in a condo, and the backyard is the size of a jail cell.

i ride on my rims during the winter and we get snow. before it snows they go sprinkle salt on the roads. and that can eat up at your wheels, but it can also eat up at your paint. as for plain water, most custom tires come with water channels to get better traction on the wet roads. rinse them off everyonce in a while and towel them dry to avoid water spots.

nah, they are aluminum racing wheels, but still get nasty as hell if i dont clean them off. salt will eat up at chrome easier than aluminum. i would recommend that you hose them down and dry them up.
