If you want to protect your investment and keep your rims in top notch shape you should be cleaning them about once a week – don’t get lazy. There are a whole bunch of car rim cleaning sprays available on the market for you to use. Ask around and find out which sprays, waxes, and cleaning methods are the best for your particular brand of wheels.

When washing your wheels be sure not to clean them the same way that you would wash your car. Take you time and do one wheel at a time. With many sprays and waxes it isn’t good to let them sit on the rim for too long because it can actually cause some damage to the wheel depending on the spray you have chosen and the car rims material.

Where you have your car parked is also a fact to consider when thinking of how to keep your car rims clean and take good care of them. If you do have the option of keeping your car in an indoor garage that would probably be the best option. If not you can also consider buying some tire covers to protect your shiny babies from dust, sand, and other elements of the harsh environment.

One more thing to consider is the type of material you use when cleaning your custom wheels. You aren’t going to want to use anything to rough like scouring pads. It is recommended to use soft cotton based cloth or specific rim cleaning brushes that you can easily find and car rims and tires stores.

Good luck and remember to protect you hard earned investment by taking proper care of your custom wheels and looking after them constantly.
