      At the risk of sounding ignorant, why use a petroleum based product when there are so many water based products designed for the exact purpose? WD-40 isn't exactly cheap compared to some specific purpose products.

        The incorrect use of the word rim has become an accepted substitute for wheel.

          I've used the Tech Protect on the visible areas of my wheel wells also. It works pretty well I think.

            With my next order from ads I decided to order some all season for the wheel wells. Just my idea after doing some research. By reading this thread, I'm more convinced that this is the right choice. Thanks everyone for helping me out.

                  I've got my hands full with 2 cars, a house and landscaped yard. I'll have to focus my detailing time and effort on the top side. But I will keep this thread as evidence to my wife that I'm not obsessed.

                      Wheels should not be tightened with air tools, but with a torque wrench. Otherwise you may warp your rotors.

                        I usually spray the wheel wells with tire shine after they have been cleabed. Just to dress them up.
