Wheel Care Guide

  • Clean your wheels regularly to keep brake dust, road film, salt and contaminants (which retain moisture) from accumulating. Pitting of the finish may occur if wheels remain dirty for prolonged periods of time.
  • Do not spray water on wheels while still hot from driving. This will shock the finish and can cause spotting or cracking. Allow wheels to cool to the touch prior to cleaning.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaning materials such as wire brushes, steel wool, or scouring pads. A soft sponge or microfiber towel is recommended.
  • Do not use strong acidic detergents, degreaser, or alkaline products. Wheels should only be washed with mild soap and water.
  • Apply a wax, polish, or ceramic coating to add a protective layer to chrome, painted, and powder coat finishes after cleaning. Dirt and brake dust will stick to the wax/polish rather than the wheel’s finish. This will also make future cleaning easier.
  • Uncoated polished aluminum finishes require more periodic maintenance than other finishes. Aluminum naturally oxidizes so re-polishing frequently is required to maintain high luster.
  • Use of wheels is not recommended throughout severe winter climates. If you choose to use your wheels through winter months, it is very important to exercise a regular maintenance program. Salt and strong chemical de-icers are commonly used in snow and icy road conditions. These elements can be very caustic and can corrode the finishes on your wheels. For optimal winter protection against corrosion, rinse wheels with water after each use and thoroughly wash weekly.
  • Use of fix-a-flat or other liquid sealing products are not recommended as a permanent fix and should only be used in an emergency situation.
  • If wheels are used for competitive racing, a visual inspection for signs of stress cracks or fatigue wear is required after each use. Immediately discontinue use of the wheels and contact Variant Alloy Wheels if any wheel failure is observed.
