Re: Cleaned my rims (way over due)
Yeah I didnt have any simple green so I used Kaboom, which I found also works VERY well for cleaning the outside of the mufflers to bring a nice shine and also works excellent for removing the black sut on the outlets of the mufflers.

Re: Cleaned my rims (way over due)
I cleaned mine i think 4 times this year in 360 miles. I love mine becuase i can reach through them and clean the insides w/o removing the wheel.

But I still think it makes its easier to take them off not to mention you can do a more detailed job when they are off.

Re: Cleaned my rims (way over due)
^^ only if the spokes are wide enough, I hate skinny 5 spoke rims, looks too empty.
Ohhh I love Mr.Roboto's rims, I want them so bad. Wanna trade? lol
