I was washing my car today and i wondered to my self how many people wash the inside of their wheel wells.

 

If you mean just spraying water inside the wheel wells... then yes.

 

i do only before shows. all the other times i'm lazy and just skip them.

for shows though, i dont hold back. engine bay gets washed, wheel wells get washed, etc etc etc

 

I spray them.

 

soap and water with a power washer ..

 

The painted part of the body that's rolled under to form the lip of the wheelwells, yes, I wash it. The remaining black plastic (in front) just gets sprayed with water.

 

I wash mine every time I wash my car,and every now and then I spray some wax there too to keep then nice and smooth,that way the dirt and road debris doesn't stick in there too much,my car is two years old and my fender wells look like new.

 

By wash i mean scrub them clean with a different rag. I feel like if i dont wash them it just sticks out.

 

yeah, for shows they're as clean as they were when i picked the car up from the dealer. i normally shine them up with some tire shine after cleaning them.

 

I dont have fender well anymore.

But if I did, yeah, I would wash the heck outta em! ;)

 

man, I wish there was an easier way to do it.
mine is flippin disgusting and I can only wash so much, without having to lay on the floor to do it

 

Absolutely... it feels incomplete if I don't. Sort of like washing the entire car except the front end or something.

During regular washing, I use soap and water. Every few months I use Meguiar's APC 4:1, then scrub with a brush.

Then it gets dressed with Armor All Tire Foam to restore blackness and to make future cleaning easier... because clean wheel wells do you little good if they're all grey, faded, and ugly.

 

Never. All I do is hose it down at a DIY pressure wash. That's it.

 

ALWAYS! It looks crappy if someone os looking at your wheels and there's **** all in the wheel wells. I spray them then wash them w/ a towel seperate from what I use on anything else.

 

Do you wash behind your ears when you bathe? Just because you can't see it doesn't mean that it's not important.

Worst case scenario, you accumulate some road salt under there and it could lead to premature rusting.

 

I HAVE to spray it down even in the middle of winter b/c of all the salt!

 

I do sometimes... when I'm not lazy because it's so tiring reaching in there to clean.

 

Its the Triple W...hahaha (Washing Wheel Wells)...haha

Yea everytime I cleen my wheels I cleand the inner part of the wells...cuz U can see the dirt in the sunlight...

 

I always put an extra effort sticking the power washer in those wheel wells. Taking off dirt is the cheapest stage 1 weight reduction.

 

I look at them while I wash everything else
Used to when I was younger and didn't have anything else to do, but now, rarely - but in Cali, it's really not necessary.
