    I would think that dry ice cleaning would be perfect for these.

    The outer rim is probably aluminum so it polishes up nice. I can’t imagine the spokes being aluminum, they wouldn’t be strong enough. They must be steel with some type of anodize or coating on them.

    for best results the wheels need to comeoff. and use only aluminum and chrome safe wheel cleaners.

    That is a nightmare :eek:. Those spokes are many times tighter than on my motorcycles which totally suck cleaning them. I would take them off and send them to a shop for polishing and then I'd be concerned with getting them dirty again if the car was a jewel.

    I agree. This is the easiest and correct way to do it, But after a few weeks, Right back to being dirty again.
