Just put some 03 black cobras on my black anniv. Just wondering what the best way to keep them shiny would be? The whole car is blacked out, looks mean as hell. I'll try and throw a pic up (umm how do you insert a picture??). Also side note question, what speed are the nitto dr's rated to? I've got the drags in the back and the 555s in the front. Thanks.

how to keep black rims shiny? try down shifting and useing the brakes less to keep brake dust down. I use spray wax for a couple days after i wash my car to keep them shiny.

No REAL way I've found. Avoid dust, and hard braking is the only way. :D

A decent wax/ spray just makes them easier to clean.

are the rims just painted black? powdercoated black?

+1 on a good spray wax. i used the same stuff when i had black rims and all you really have to do is wipe it down.
