Default Teflon Coated wheel questions

I have seen what salt air/water can do to steel wheels, i've heard heard what it can do to alloys. do the teflon coated AR wheels wear well.

i have AR teflon coated. i have been happey with them. a year now in florida on the beach, except for scratches from offorading in rocks and some mud, there are no signs or wear, also i do not see any signs of corrosion coming through the scratches. i can take some close up pics in the morning for ya.

the only bad thing i can see, is so far i have not seen any type of repair kit for when you scratch them. since i offroad my jeep i cannot say how well they hold up from just street wear and tear. even with the scratches i have on mine, i am no where near replacing them anytime soon.

IMHO

Locklain, captjay,

appreciate the feedback, haven't heard many negative things about teflon coated wheels.
