  • Any type of cleaner that I can use to clean this off wheels?

    Just today I noticed when I was washing my 2011 Dodge Nitro, I seen two spots on my painted aluminum wheels. It almost looks like the clear coat of the paint chipped off for some reason? I have included a photo. Is there an easy solution for this or should I just get a replacement OEM wheel? Could this have been caused by washing my ride as I do wash it quite a bit?

    That looks like straight up impact damage from something the wheel came in contact with. No cleaner will repair this, but shelling out for a replacement OEM wheel will be very expensive. Do a Google search for wheel repair in your area. There are mobile guys who can do this work on site, or shops that specialize in this sort of work. They can take a wheel that has been horrible curb rashed and in far, far worse condition than this wheel, and make them look like they're brand new. Pricing is usually under $100/wheel, and sometimes well under that figure.
