        Gold is very Porsche-ish (espically for track wheels), that's a sweet idea. I'm thinking about just painting my current wheels, and whenever I get a set of 15"s, I'll have some nice back ups too.

              Yes, that is the easiest way to ruin your wheels finish.

                I've been using Super Clean for years, and I haven't ruined a single wheel. Just don't let it sit for long, but it's great for getting off tons of grime.

                  There is a product has teflon in the wheel cleaner & it makes things easier when you clean it in the future. Its also safe on all finishes.
