They are black matte alloy. I believe it's flat black. I've taken them to the car wash and they said they use armor all to shine the tires. They look REALLY polished when they did it. I used degreaser and Turtle wax Foam Rim cleaner and nothing. If it is Armor All, what is the EXACT name of the cleaner to get to wipe down the rims cleaning without still looking faded and making the black come out more? Thanks for any info in advance.

 

Armor All Gel tire shine Youll see it in any autoparts store

 

Won't stain the rims?

 

One thing, off Armor All's site it says it's for Tires and not the WHEELS. So this can be used for the rims as well?

 

Wheels and "rims" are the same thing... If it says not for the wheels dont put it on anything but the tire

 

I use the Black magic tire spray for my rs5 wheels. I use a tire sponge thing to apply it. then spraying into a micro fiber towel I coat the rims with it. Looks really nice. Even makes the red pin stripe just pop.

 

I'll look into that. Anymore ideas?

 

Bump

 

whats the bump for. we told you how to clean them. I even told you what to do with the rs5 black matte wheels. not sure what else you need bro.

 

Oh tried it. Didn't work. But thanks.

 

If you give me your wheels, you wouldnt run into this problem :D
But seriously, you should go look at a show called "bullrun", the winners of each leg of the race receive a Black Magic( i think it is black magic) detail and it always looks good, so you might want to look at that.
