Default Finally got my wheels and tires

Finally got my 22.5" wheels and tires. Not on tuck yet (still waiting for adapters). Take a look at the picture and let me know what you guys think.

Goodyear tires and Forgitron Wheels.

Thanks,
GMB

Still waiting for my mounts to show up but will give pictures the moment they go on.

Anyone ever polish aluminum wheels before to get rid of small scratches? I would like to be able to rotate my tires on accosion and need both sides to be perfect but I have a couple of small scratches on the outside of a couple wheels and was looking for a proven way to buff them out.

What should I look out for?

man i have aluminum 19.5s on my truck, and i as well wanted to rotate my tires, i bought a mothers powerball, it worked ok, the very best thing that i found was american racing hot rod wheel polish. it comes in a black jar and has like cotton wadding inside, it is very tidious work especially on rims as big as yours and mine but it is well worth the effort. also i will warn you that you will get rust rings on your aluminum rims from the inner steel wheels that you will be able to see when you rotate the tires unless you break the tires down every time you rotate which gets expensive. also i learned the hard way, you need to run a closed shoulder tire on the front, i had some hercules that looked almost identical to the tires you bought and they will wear bad on the front, so just rotate every oil change, it will help tremendously. other than that love your wheels and tires, i hope you get the enjoyment out of them that i get out of my 19.5s .lets see some pics ASAP
