Wheel Care Tips
 
I just bought a 65th Anniversary Edition Wrangler and it has the
"Forged Aluminum Wheels" on it. I am curious about the BEST way to care
for these wheels. I have had it about 10 days and am already
experiencing a great amount of brake dust on the front two wheels. Any
suggestions?

Wash the wheels? Change the brake pads to something like Performance
Friction that gives off less brake dust?

Re: Wheel Care Tips
 
what does the Owner's Manual say?

Lot's of good wheel cleaner chemicals out there, but you don't want to
eat thru any factory coating that might be on the wheels. For mine, the
manual says use mild car wash soap & rinse them off - but not to use any
specific wheel cleaners.

Re: Wheel Care Tips....and,....
 

........I think the trick is to clean them fairly often and not let the
crud collect and harden on.
