Would you treat it similarly to your hood and use soap such as PS21 or would you use the various wheel cleaners? I am concerned that a wheel cleaner would be too abrasive on the painted portion. I also plan on applying Rejex to the wheel which should add some extra protection.

do u have PCCB? it actually doesn't matter much. i only use soap anyway. treat them just like paint. no wheel cleaner or anything that has acid. it's bad not only for wheel but also for the brakes.

Thanks for the reply. I have PCCBs. Am wondering since I don't wash the car that frequently and on my past C4S, I had to use some elbow grease to get the non-painted wheels clean.

For my painted wheels I use a horse hair brush and some zymol wheel cleaner. It has no harsh chemicles and works great. I also rejex the wheels every 6 months which protects the painted surface and makes it so the brake dust cleans off with ease.
