Hey guys, since the wheels are plastic coated, what can be used to clean/shine them up?
Thanks

"Eagle-1 All Wheel and Tire Cleaner" works for me.
if needed ill use a little "Westly's Bleach White" on the letters.
then finish off with either Meguiere's or Eagle-1 tire shine. (personally i like the aerosol versions)

I only user soap and water on my current cars and will on my 09. If you wash often enough and keep them waxed that is all you need. If it goes weeks, and gets baked on there you may need some wheel cleaner.

Since they are plastic no need for fancy cleaners. Just the left over soap and water in my bucket from washing the truck with a wheel cleaner brush.
