So far, so good. I cleaned the new tires and washed the new wheels with Dawn Ultra (had to remove the mounting grease the tire shop uses), dried them, and did the front and back coat of Z-AIO, Z-CS... The result looked pretty sweet, but my hands hurt from the long polishing session. Water spots appeared when the Z-AIO came in contact with the chrome, it was not hard to remove them but still, you gotta put some elbow grease into it.
Curing is taking way longer due to the ridiculous 100% humidity that the east of the country is experiencing right now so I was forced to bring them inside the house for curing. Waited half a day and took them back to the garage for a final spray (front and back) of Armor All Wheel Protectant, since all I hear are glowing reviews.
I bought 3 cans of Armor All just in case because I noticed that people apply a very rich coating of this stuff in order to work properly (the can is very small!). I am glad to report that after a full front and back spray on these large wheels I only used one can (just a little bit left in it now). The spray lays completely clear like water, it lays consistent smooth and bubble free, and does build to a drip if you let it (spray from further back to get nice even coats, like a paint). I tried to be reasonable with the spray can and just insured my hand movements covered everything without putting the can too close to the wheel to avoid heavy dripping. I did the full cleaning process with the wheels laying horizontally flat and when applying the Armor All spray I started on the back and quickly flipped them and finished the front so that they would drip to the back of the wheel and not on the front finish or on the tires. Any white drip marks that may get on the rubber are easy to clean if you were to spray them while mounted on your car.
After a couple of hours drying in the humid garage they are back inside sitting in front of a fan.
I was curious about using this product with chrome and using it to top another sealant layer but so far it appears that the mirror finish that Zaino provided will not be compromised by this final top protective coating (some people reported cloudiness even after drying). They still look perfect and any trapped dust particles that appeared when the spray went on them have disappeared after drying (I thought I was going to have a bunch of little dust particles stuck within the protective layer after drying). A quick dusting may be necessary ones this Armor All stuff cures and I am ready to put them on the vehicle, but for now I am excited about the results and the fact that I got to polish, seal and protect them before they see any weather, break dust or damage of any kind.
I'll add some pictures as soon as I get a chance. Time will tell how they'll hold up to my driving.
Thanks for the advice everyone.
