CSL owners out there, please comment on your experiences
The finish is perfectly fine, our own vehicles have been running the wheels with no issues to report. There is also a 1 year warranty on the finish.

The most important part would be to use no abrasive/acidic cleaners (this includes Simple Green) on the wheels when washing - plain soap & water will do. If you wouldn't use it on your BMW's paint - it shouldn't be on the wheels.

Wheel Wax is a good product for the wheels and is recommended a good coat is applied before installing to prevent brake dust buildup. A simple rinse with the hose will take the dust right off.
