Mirror Machined Finish?

Will these wheels be easy to keep clean? I am not really wanting to pay the price to have chrome, plus I live in the midwest and we have road salt in the winter months. Any info would be appriciated!

If they are clear coated then yes it will be pretty easy to keep them clean. Even if they aren't cleared, you might find a body shop that can spray them for less than the difference of the chromes.

If they are bare, then you will need to polish and wax them on occasion. The wax will keep the environment off of them so they will not oxidize as quickly and the polishing will cut any oxidization off.
