Status: offline I bought a gt in august of last year. Among other upgrades, I added 18in Saleen rims. Unfortunately I lived in Rhode Island over the winter, and with the salt and other new england junk, the rims are a mess. There are small amounts of rust forming, and the inside of them is far from pretty. Any tips or suggestions for the cleaning of them? Should I take them off the car to clean? What is the best cleanser? What is the best rag or scrubber to use? I would appreciate any help I can get. It would be a shame to have wasted my money for a winter of hot rims.

But yea this is why I have Bullitt's on mine I live in FL so the salt water isn't easy on chrome. Well, any metal for that matter.
