    Thank you in advance.
    I'm in Ohio. Zero issues with salt and gyeon RIM. Love it.

    Re: Best Options for protecting these wheels?

    I applied regular CarPro CQuartz paint coating (not the UK version) to my summer wheels and it has worked out really well. So far it has lasted two spring-to-fall seasons of driving and countless washings, yet still beads up like the day it was first applied. If you look around, some retailers actually sell sample sized, 10ml bottles which is the perfect size for doing a set of wheels.

    I have not applied any coatings to my winter wheels. They are in pretty rough shape already (the whole reason they are winter wheels), so I simply try to keep them clean and don't worry too much about them.

    While there are good, reputable, wheel coatings out there, don't over look some of the regular paint coatings which will probably do just as well.
