Default New rims and tires

So I'm a crazy idiot and installed my new Pirelli Summer Tires and 20 inch Havoc Rims in January My chevy dealer just installed them this afternoon while I was enjoying happy hour after work


I left my car clean and I picked it up really dusty They have construction going on so it's not their fault.

Most tire shine is looks tacky. Clean rubber is all you need.
