wheels help just about any car. max sure to wash and wax your car at least every week to week and a half and clay bar it every month.

idk what clay bar is but yea wash it at least every week and a half..but i wouldnt wax it every week and a half...maybe once every month-month and a half. waxing a car too much is bad on the paint. also use engine degreaser on you engine and keep your engine bay lookin good to keep stuff from building up there.

clay bar is this little bar you use to pick up all things on your car. everything from sap to road grime. makes your car feel like a babys ass. if you dont want to wax that often use detailing spray(comes with the clay bar as a lubricant) after washing your car

ya clay bar wipes off everything right down to the paint, and if you get a pebble in the clay bar even the paint will come off (clay bars are pure, if you put on ground you will own your own car). If you want to take your car to a car show or show it off you're going to clay bar it then wax it, best waxing job you will get. You should regularly use a clay bar, I wouldn't say monthly but don't be a stranger to it

good hint for waxing is when water stops beading on it or isn't beading as often wax it.
