There still in the box, what should I put on them before I put them on the car. I dont want to buy one product online to do the wheels. What can I buy in the store? I have never dull, mothers chrome polish, mothers mag/ss polish. I have zaino, is z2 the best to put on what I have. What could I buy at autozone or something to coat my wheels.
 
I personally used mother's chrome polish when I had my chromies, and loved the result. I would suggest you apply it sparingly, leave it on till it hazes (dries) and then rub rub rub it off.

Use any product that is a non carnuba. I personally use NXT because it is inexpensive and easy to us. Carnubas will melt due to the high temperature that the wheels put out. I would not use a chrome polish since they tend to have abrasives in them which in time will start to dull and scratch the chrome.
 
I used Klasse All-In-One. Dunn't know if that is good or bad. But they remain shiney and thet attact very little brake dust.

Z2 would be fine. Just use any sealant. You probably don't need to use any type of polish since they're brand new.



I'd use AIO first, but of course you'll have some saying that Z2 won't bond to AIO. Do what you wish...
 
You may want to think about plastic dust shields they are cheap and will definately reduce brake dust (assuming you have disc brakes)
