Hello,
I was wondering what wheel polish would be best for the following.
I have Maxxim187's, silver with silver machine lip 17x7.

Should I go with an all purpose polish? Please recommend some good products.

Thanks,
Matt

I find it hard to believe no one has any recommendations. C'mon.
In passing someone had mentioned that certain products could actually harm your wheels rather then protect them and I don't want to do any damage.

ummm.......if i were to say anything.....i'd go with nevr dull.... that's what i use on my stock tc wheels...

You don't *have* to purchase the products they sell, but I highly recommend
most if not all of what they recommend. I use the Sonus on my Porsches.
Brake dust will eat away your silver finish on those wheels and make them
ugly pretty easily.

Enjoy!

I use this stuff from armor all, it's really sweet.. its just their wheel cleaner, and its in a big spray bottle... you just spray it all over the wheel and let it sit for sixty seconds, and then rinse and polish with a rag.. in my experience it works really well.. one thing though, i think this goes with all polish that dissolves brake dust, is that you need to rinse off your driveway really good wherever you use the stuff or it will get messed up.. so yea try that..

The spray and rinse wheel cleaners are high acid content
to save you the elbow grease....so what do you think acid
is doing to your rubber and paint?

That website is SICK!!!!

I was reading about the Klasse all in one polish etc.... have you used this stuff?

for all my rims in the past and as of now, i use regular car was on them. i've been doing this for a few years now, and it seems to work. gunk doesn't sitck to them as much, and it's easier to clean. i'm not sure it's the best thing to do, but it seems to work.

little off topic - are the stock tC wheels painted?

wheels are usually painted or clear anodized..
using anything abrasive will just strip it.
nothing beeats just water!

True I advise not to use the spray cleaners. I don't care if they do say "safe for rims" blah blah. Use car wash soap andf water to clean them. For my painted wheels I use NXT just like I do for my paint. For metal or machined wheels Mother's Billet polish is real good. And Meguiars also just came out with their NXT All Metal Polysh.

I haven't tried it yet though. So I can't really tell you anything about it. I do know that their NXT wax is a great product.
