    Here is a cheap, easy way to polish your wheels. Take that old rear end you have out back behind the shed, put it up on jack stands. Bring your riding lawnmower over, jack it up till it hits the yolk. Fire the tractor up and select the gear speed that rotates the wheel at your desired speed. VOILA, just hold your sandpaper or polish until it looks right. Evens leaves a hand free to consume your favorite beverage(s).....Scott

    Dude thats a cool idea. I alway just jacked up one of the rear wheels (no posi) a few jack stands and put the car in gear and let it spin from idle. Polishes those slotted mags good. For those of you that are concerned this is dangerous please don't do it you could die [​IMG]...
