Rotated the tires this weekend. Looked at the inside of the wheels and man they were really bad. Brake dust and mag chloride have done a number on them. Brown/black and pitted. Spayed them down and scrubbed with a brush but there is still alot there.

Any suggestions for cleaning this mess off?

And yes I did a search.

Mine are much the same way - about all I could do was spray with a good cleaner (Fantastic, Amazing cleaner etc) and scrub like mad with a short bristled brush till my arms fell off. They still look pretty rough - but as they aren't visible I've let them be. If one was super fussy, I would sand lightly (heavier on the pitted areas) and respray a coat of matching silver on the backside, with a couple coats of clear.

Get yourself some of this and thank me later...



Be careful it is very powerful and you need a professional grade spray bottle or it will eat up your sprayer.

I have used the Eagle One Wheel Cleaner. It's got like four different types of acid in it, worked very well.

I painted mine black with por-15 when they were still clean made the chrome stand out more.

The key is to remove the wheel for major cleaning, I do it once a month, Even in the winter.
