    Best wheel cleaner in you eyes?

    What do you all think is the best brake cleaner citing wheel washing stuff lol? For aftermarket wheels. Like the viper rims pretty much anything that won't eat the paint dull the shine after a while. Just clean them up reall good ??

    I dont use wheel cleaners. Soapy water to wash and then windex with a microfiber towel. Works wonders on chrome. I'd imagine any other wheel surface for that matter.

    I don't recommend putting wheel cleaner in your eyes. Just flush with water if you get something in there.

    If you wash your wheels regularly you shouldnt have to worry about any type of build up that would require a specific cleaner.

    For soiled rims. Once your wheels are cleaned and protected, just regular soap and water maintenance should do the trick.

    I use S100 or P21S, it's basically the sme thing, only that S100 is cheaper and is sold at your local Harley Davidson shop. It's a gel type. Squeeze the trigger and let it cling to your wheels and it will do the work. A light once over with a microfiber towel while it suds and your wheels are super clean. I have black wheels as well and have to clean them every week due to the brake dust and black is just difficult to keep clean.

    The reason I like this product is because it's lubricity is crazy. will not damage your wheels finish. Give it a shot, about $8 at your local HD.

    i normally never need anything more than a towel...

    next time you detail your car put a coat of good wax on them if your vipers are a gloss finish. after that just wipe them down or use detailer spray as needed. i recommend Zaino Z8 Grand Finale or chemical guys purple synthetic detailer.
