You are of course 100% correct, and my deepest apologies to all for ranting.
The way I obsess over so many things in life, I'm going to give myself a coronary, or stroke.

The Wheels-Tires have yet to be mounted to the truck as of this point. I brought everything in with my junker Kia Spectra Hatchback. Amazing what these little cars can hold. All 4 wheels in boxes fit in the back, and then took two completed wheel sets home at a time. I did keep the boxes for now just in case.

The GM Lugs, and Locks (McGuard branded) only came yesterday too via UPS. They are stunning, and a personal perfect match IMO for these wheels.

(I'll include a couple pics of the Lugs-Locks for now so all can see)

This morning, one job was washing all Tires-Wheels, had to get sticker-tape residue off all Tires, Paint Thinner was the only thing that would budge the adhesive residue.

Wheels were given a bath with Duragloss Shampoo-Water and then all Wheels have just been coated in-out with CarPro CQuartz UK Ceramic Coating for protection.

Before Coating, all wheels were given a wipedown prep with 70% Alcohol, then Carpro Eraser, another Prep Product designed by them to remove Oils-Greases-etc so the coatings will properly bond.

Haven't yet treated the Tires, but will give time for the Ceramic Coating to cure, a good 48 hours. Even the Lugs-Locks were prepped, and Coated for protection.

The CQuartz will shrug brake dusts, water, and dirts like water on a duck's back for a long long time.

These wheels, and tires are truly stunning and may I say huge (285/45-22 Nitto 421Q) I weighed one tire-wheel on the bathroom scale, it came to exactly 90 lbs.

I'm quite impressed with this tire so far. Really like the way it looks, and the quality. I think I made a super choice versus other brands-models for the type of driving I will normally encounter.

First off, I note it is made in the USA, is a M&S Tire, but V rated in this size I have.

I like the Sidewall, and like the fact that they didn't go too overboard-crazy with those little tiny ribs which it seems so many of today's tires have damn near the entire sidewall covered in ribs. I like the way they designed the bead. This factory repro wheel seems to mate-go well.

Nice deep, and wide Circumferential Grooving which should prove beneficial in the rain. Overall a pretty unique groove pattern IMO.

As for tire pressures, I'll probably start at 38 psi and go from there.

After coating the wheels, I cannot seem to see-notice any of these slight sleeks in the chrome from the tire mounting that I cried over before!?

Perhaps the coating had a "filling effect"?

Here's a pic of the wheel and tire. Note the rubber has not been dressed-treated yet.
