Following on from an earlier thread decicded to give the wheels a bit of a seeing to. Had all four off the car, rinsed down and cleaned with an acid free wheel cleaner, half hearted clay, and applied Rim Wax. Don't think they look too bad for a couple of hours work (and yes I know the rest of the car is filthy and the tyres still need dressing :P)

Any comments/ criticisms welcome

The wheels might be clean, but the tyres are still rubbish.........

The fronts are Toyo's :confused: the conti's have too much tread left for a tight **** like me to replace

Mine are waiting ...............

Noway you can get in there with a wheel brush? I couldnt be bothered taking em off!

Oh yes you can...

If you can't be bothered taking the wheels off, a decent wheel brush and an old toothbrush works just as well.

Mine only come off twice a year to clean the liners properly, but otherwise always look well.

You didn't paint your 312's? For shame...

Wheels look shiny though. I need a trolley jack/axle stands before I think about taking the wheels off to clean them...

I get the following results with what's just left in the bucket after I've done the rest of the car ....

Total time 10 mins for all 4 wheels... so that's an extra 1hr 50 mins for a few beers and watchin the footie on a Saturay afternoon :P

What's tyre dressing BTW, is it like Salad Dressing :confused:

Very nice Andy

Tyre Dressing is something that makes your tyres look black.........there are various different types but I am using Megs Hot Shine Tyre Spray at the moment:

On a side not, Tom_vRS is organising a GB at the moment on DW for what in my opinion is the best Wheel Brush you can buy:

Detailing World

Motorgeek for a massive range of car care products and accessories

I have a few ordered and I would reccomend it to anyone...............
