Wheel Wax? (Vossen CV7 polished)

Should I worry about applying any type of wheel wax or protectant over my new Vossen CV7 wheels? With them being polished wasnt sure if there is certain way I need to care for them?

Thanks in advance

Wheel wax never hurts. It'll help cleaning the brake dust off easier

There is a poor boys wheel sealant you can apply for protection but honestly soap and water do just fine. I even sometimes spray a bit of Quick detailer to wipe them clean lol.

Applying any sealant should help preserve the finish a bit and make future cleanings much easier. You can generally use the same sealant you would use on your paint (ie Blackfire Wet Diamond All Finish Paint Protection) or you can look for a wheel specific product (ie Poorboy's World Wheel Sealant or Wheel Wax). Let me know if you have any other detailing questions I'd be happy to help.

Def go with a sealant. Try Optimum's products. They go on quick and really make keeping your wheels looking the best and easy proposition.
