    Dura Brites look mediocre at best.

    They never really have the deep, clear lustre that a good "high polished" wheel has and then, after a while they start to get sandblasted and worn and then they really look like ####!

    I'll stick with the better lookin' polished wheels.

    Polished alum for me. Yeah, it's more work, but the shine goes beyond the surface. And if you have a good cut guy, the shine lasts quite a while.

    Plus up here with the winters we have and all the crap they put on the roads that dura bright coating peels off and doesn't seem to last long.

    I like polished, as long as someone else does the polishing, I hate polishing.

    I have seen some painted wheels that look good too.
