Keeping chrome wheels clean is easy. Wash them with soap while you're doing your car. Otherwise, any old foaming spray cleaner works too. Hell, a dry rag cleans them up pretty good.

I will probably have all sorts a questions. But first is what do you all use to clean and polish your chrome wheels. There are all sorts of products out there and I don't want to end up with something that damages them.

Thanks
Simichrome. Nothing more need said.
