windex if you stay on top of the cleaning. If you let them stay black too long I have found that naval jelly actually works best to get the brake dust off without wrecking the chrome....just don't leave it on too long or your wheel will disolve! And rinse it well!

I used to use fine steel wool and wheel cleaner.

Jutn,

For maintaining your chrome wheels, I highly recommend checking out our Detail Spray.

Adam’s Detail Spray is the cornerstone of our product line and is the most versatile product we offer. This “Best of Show” winner is a favorite at car shows. Use as a waterless car wash, a clay bar lubricant, or to enhance the depth and clarity of paint, chrome, aluminum, and glass. Specially formulated lubricants gently remove dirt, smudges, and grime, leaving surfaces with a smooth, ultra-high gloss finish. Use in the sun or shade, and in hot or cool temperatures.

Thanks and please let me know if you have any questions!
