not a big fan, because of all the spots for dirt to hide in and cause problems cleaning!

are those the ones that are Teflon coated?

The wheel is very similar in general design to the alcoas, front and back. Not much of anywhere for dirt to hide.

Besides Maurice, I wheel my truck. A monthly washing and waxing is she gets. I don't have "oh no my chrome is dirty" symdrone like many of the blingers on here. If I wanted my truck to be pretty I'd have gone with the super lift and some 22s.

The saying goes form over function.........but it my case it's all about functionality and these wheels get me further away from bling!

EDIT: Heaven forbid I be different and not get DC1s or MTs like everyone else. BTW, look at the ae wheels site. Wheels that look almost exactly like your DC1s are on there, and I bet they are cheaper.

FWIW Maurice, I have nothing against you except for your knack for belittling everything some people do on this forum in a way of being different from the everyone else. Others have called you out on it too. It really is unnerving at times.

Unlike the others, let me actually step back, rewind what I've said (though I'm keeping it up) and publicly thank you.

THANK YOU!

Maurice.......as I said I have no problems with you OTHER THAN how you belittle people on here regarding purchases they make for their vehicles. You praise those in the cliques and seem to give a rat's *** about those not in the little groups on here. As I said, heaven forbid someone not purchase or do something to their vehicle of your liking. Not trying to be a jackass about it, not trying to cry about it. Just merely trying to approach how you make others feel on here with your 2 cents in an adult and professional fashion (though my little snipes above were not quite professional, but now you get a feeling of how it feels).

Again, not trying to **** you off but merely just pointing out how you handle things on here at times.
