Wash with warm soapy water. Then follow with a couple coats of RejeX wax. Done. I don't use any wheel cleaners other than soap and water.

Vaseline is used for anodized wheels, such as the 911 Fuchs. Your wheels are painted and clear coated, so wax or a good polymer (RejeX) would be the logical choice.

True. For maybe the initial cleaning. Expensive. And it strips off the wax. If you go this route, follow with RejeX, and then only use soapy water. Then, RejeX a few times per drivng season.



For best results, pull the wheels, to access the barrels easier & faster.
