...that are part of the dynamics package? Last time i was at the dealership, the parts dude would not sell me anything MOPAR - he said you need to clean those with just mild wash soap. I was wondering if anyone has tried the Adam's ECO wheel cleaner with any success, since it's so mild.

I've always just used soap and water but with the stock Brembo pads, it was a pain. Now with the PowerStop Z23 it's super easy so that's all I use. I have heard of others using Sonax but I've never tried it, I've got the same wheels as you but in Hyperblack.

I find it hysterical all these folks naming all these high dollar, fancy shmancy cleaners.

Google best car wash soap. You can run right down to AutoZone, Advance Auto...even Walmart and buy the number 1 rated car wash soap which is just fine for cleaning your wheels too. That's more internet hype/ advertising based on emotions.

Agreed, I am not sure what rooted the expectation of easily cleaning wheels. I used to see a lot of no touch cleaners that I always felt were to aggressive. I use a small detail brush, a larger wheel brush and a wheel mitt with my usual car wash soap. Its the elbow grease that makes the difference and you won't have to worry about the effects of other chemicals on the finish.

To clean the grime off of the tires, I do like diluted Chemical Guys wheel cleaner with a good scrub from a stiffer dedicated brush, but diluted simple green would also work.

Simple green non diluted, works just as good on engine bays too, I buy a gallon of it at wally world for like 6 bucks

I have the PoorBoys World wheel cleaner and it works great. You just spray your wheel off then spray it on there and let it sit for a few minutes. Then wash it off. I haven't had to actually scrub the wheels it works that well. There are a lot of videos on Youtube that show how it works.

I have also been using poorboys world touchless wheel cleaner for a while and has been working great. Can use my discount code on their site if you decide to try it project392-15 gets you 15% off.

Best wheel cleaner ever! ✔️ - YouTube
