Re: Another newbie with a question or two...
Congrats & Welcome to the Forum!!!
Take care of your "chrome "rims and they will take care of you. I would invest in a set of Rotex Gold brake pads for the front brakes (you will not regret it).
A little chrome polish twice a month and wheel wax or car wax once a month and you will be fine. One warning though...do not use any abrasive cleaners or wheel cleaners on your chrome. I usually use Windex (Old School) and a micro fiber cloth, then chrome polish and then wax.
