After a year or so of having the Centerline wheels they have accumulated a rather disgusting amount of stains and wat spots. I have never used any kind of wheel cleaner before and I was afraid I'd scratch the wheels up (they are polished, not chrome) but after some elbow grease they turned out great! I forgot how shiney they could be.

I went out to the marsh to take some pics but the sun was in a bad angle vs the water and will only work for morning shots. This is what I have for now. Ohh, my picture editor really dulls the pics during resizing. On a good note, I averaged 54.8mpg over the 30miles of driving through town and the marsh roads. It's nice not having to deal with too much traffic or a freeway. lol

With a high re spic I can do better.And with high res spics I can get fix the others too but I need the photo to be of high enough quality to actually zoom in on it without rasterizing it.

Funny you mention that. One of the guys on my racing forum did as well. I'm waiting for the new plates to come in.
