Tips on cleaning wheels?
Friday, April 01, 2005 11:22 AM
This is my first set of wheels and i don't want them to go to crap too fast, and i was wondering what the best way is to keep them clean and what kind of cleaner some people use, i have been using the tire wet for my tires and a never dull polish for the wheels. I am mostly concerned about the inner part of the wheel, i don't know if anyone ever worries about that part, but when you look at some wheels you don't usually see the inner wheel dirty as crap so what do you guys do.

I didn't find a post on this and i did do a search.

So nobody goes to the extremity of taking the wheels off in order to clean the inner wheels. I'm sure some people do

I know that soapy water and some "elbow grease" will do it, but i didn't know if there were any techniques or anything.

I have found that if I wash the car at least once a week, including the inner parts of the rims(without taking them off).. then they'll take a real long time to discolor.. Considering you get them when they're new..

Talk about elbow grease, you're looking at a guy who polished the insides(and outer lip) of his rims.. Good way to kill your arms for a few days.. LOL Never again.
