Not sure where to post in the proper place, but recently picked up a little bit rusty '96 I30. Wheels were very dirty, baked on brake dust and covered in dirt (i think). Took a while, but the results after cleaning.

 

These look awesome, very clean. The old stock spoke wheels on my 97 I30 are so beat up. I would like to restore them and make them shine again

 

How did you clean them, what did you use?

 

"Mothers wheel and tire cleaner" , the non acidic kind. Soaked the wheel, waited a couple of minutes then brushed with a cheap long brush that was pretty useless outside of the very top of it because the bristles were too soft. For all the little hard to get into areas on the wheel i used a toothbrush. Then rinsed off with water (also rinsing with water occasionally while cleaning.)

 

It most ertainly did the job. Thanks.
