WWW's look awesome, but there is no way in hell that I could keep them clean.
I mean, I ride my bike. Just a simple wipe down is all I'm looking for.

I think they look good. With a jack cleaning isn't too bad as long as you don't let them go too long. Once I got rid of the spokes it doesn't take long at all to clean tires and wheels.
