Got these...funny...they were listed as white. Thought i'd post some before and after pics.

Here's before (i'll post afters in a day or two). They should clean up nice. The grey still looks pretty good.

Your lucky as the gray is much more rare than the white ones "good score". Sweet wheels !

Well...i just cleaned the rim on the right. It wasn't bad to begin with...small amount of brake rub that came off pretty easy. Started on the one on the left.

Let me tell you...i've never seen so much brake residue on a mag. Holy crap...i'd like to meet the dude that ran those pads....f'er. I need some more supplies before i get back to it. Might be a couple more days...jeezus that rim is bad with brake stuff....!#$!@$!.

Dont use the black pads on these mags, get yourself a set of gray or even white tuff pads. I find that the black residue is little harder to remove than white.
