(prHWY.com) January 10, 2013 - UK, AL -- UK, Jan 10, 2013 - Spotless, shiny alloy wheels can look great on your car but preventing them looking dull and dirty needs regular upkeep and care, which starts in advance of fitting the wheels to the car with a covering of polish on either side of each wheel. The polish will help to stop tar, dust and grit from the road and brake dust from adhering to the wheels. Besides dirt picked up from the road, brake dust is the foremost reason for dull, stained wheels, and should be removed often so it doesn't get baked onto the wheels by the heat from the brake disc. Brake dust is corrosive and can eat into the surface lacquer, creating blackened patches on the wheels.

Keeping alloys looking good starts with using a hose to remove as much loose dirt as you can, don't start with a sponge or cloth on top of dirt or road grit or you will scratch the wheel's surface. After all the loose dirt is off you can wash with soapy water, or perhaps use a wheel cleaner, to clean around and under the spokes, making sure to use lots of water so that any grit left is washed out.Take a small sponge and clean around the rim and behind the spokes. To get a really special finish take off the wheels and wash off the brake dust and grit from within the wheel - this will make the wheels look especially good.

Now the wheels are clean a light polish is a good idea to remove surface scratches and spots of tar. The wax coating can also help the wheel to stay looking good by making it more difficult for tar and brake dust to stick.

If you really hate cleaning your tyres take this into account when choosing the design of your alloy wheels and choose the less fancy designs with fewer hard to clean crevices - clean, shiny plainer wheels will look far better than fancy designs with blackened and dirty areas.


Wheels were invented along time ago and it has over the years facilitated in a lot of functions. It functions by rolling on a surface with reduced friction. It is more effective when there is an axle. In order for the rotation to happen, gravity or other appliances of external forces must be at work around the axis. This is a common phenomenon in the transport industry.

Alloy wheels And Tyres both items come in their own variations. The tires are in most cases made of Aramid, a synthetic fiber that is thought of as being stronger than steel. It is a combination of rubber, chemicals, fabrics and some metals. This definitely makes them strong enough to bear the weight of the car. The discs on the other hand are made from a combination of metals, called alloys. This way, they become lighter and perform better.
