Default Rim Wax?

Wondering if anyone waxed their wheels or did anything to help protect them. If so, please tell what you did. Thanks

I use Zaino on my wheels and it works wonders. Shines up great and reduces the amount of brake dust that collects on them. Try using Z-5 or Z-2.

350Zteve, be careful with your rims.. I heard they are very soft finish and can come off.. but at the same time, their the best rims out there imo. I bet those costed a pretty penny Keep em clean!

zymol is in the auto stores. actually, here it is also in the drug stores. it is in a blue bottle. or a clear container with the blue product. it comes in either a liquid or a "paste". very easy to apply. smells kind of like coconut.
