Here's something I've always wondered, how come if you get chrome tips, they will rust on you right away.....but if you get chrome rims they never rust(or at least I've never seen rusted rims)? Is it because a different type of chrome is used?

chrome rims actually will rust you just wash your rims more than the tips ive had chrome tips for a while and nothing wrong with them at all i wipe them off and spray them with wd40 2 times a week they look perfect2001 SOM Camaro SS<p>Direct flo lid---Lakewood LCAs----Edelbrock Torque Arm-----Lous Short Stick---Dynomouth 3\" Exhaust---SLP Center Mount Exhaust---Poly tranny and torque arm mounts.<p>My site....http://community.webshots.com/album/49413018hRfdbP -
Exhaust tips rust because the heat expands pockets in the surface of the metal and Carbon from the exhaust gas will attach to these open "pores" and if you don't clean them, it starts oxidizing and the metal compound starts to rust....I think this is how it goesComment

Exhaust tips are chromed steel or stainless steel...
Wheels are chromed ALUMINUM
Big damn difference when chromed.2002 5-spd NBM Camaro

I have mine for a long time now and theyve never rusted. I just scrub em with soap and water. Always make sure you dry them afterwards though.<b>.::[ 0 ]::.</b><br /><b>1997 Camaro 3800 II M5</b> (30th edition)<br />[]B&M Ripper Shifter<br />[]Proform Shift Light<br />[]SLP Cold Air<br />[]Dynomax Exhaust<br />[]Richmond 3.73\'s<br />[]Zexel-Torsen LSD<br />[]180* Thermostat<br />[]Tail Blackouts<br /><a href=\"http://photos.yahoo.com/skyracer_x\" target=\"_blank\">pics</a>Comment
