CONGRATS ON YOUR NEW RIDE!
USE THE MAG POLISH ON SOMETHNG ELSE CAUSE' THE WHEELS ARE CLEAR COATED!
Good that you got your truck. The wheels on mine are clear coated and do not need to be polished. As far as break in go easy on the clutch but I ran mine like it was stolen from go. The only vehicle I broke in the way the factory manual recommended was a nissan pickup and it was such a dog that it barked. I had a carb and EFI shop for years and whenever I drove a customers/same make and model truck on a road test it always ran better than mine. We spent many hours trying to figure out why the truck was so anemic. There was no reason and it was smooth running, just slow. We could only attribute it to break in. The new ones that I broke in hard ( and there have been many ) always ran hard.

San.. On all my SRT's the wheels are BEAR aluminum, no clear coat.. Are you sure yours are clear coated, with the aluminum heating up and expanding, the break dust gets lodged into the pouris surface and is a ***** to clean.
How many have naked versus clear coated rims? Mine are certainly polished, just not clear coated.

I am always careful...and that is why i got red so that a blind man can see me! Up here in washington, during the winter I don't think black or grey would go a body good, if you know what i mean.My neighbor bought one of those ricers...nissan z car...guess how many times she has been run into..?Hamrhead said:Clear Coated here.

That's cool, but I was actually referring to the 'Boys In Blue'. Keep an eyeball out, 'cause they'll have no trouble at all seeing you!Dallas said:I am always careful...and that is why i got red so that a blind man can see me!
