Wheel Care

[Gumby 1100_imp]

While at the dealer signing the papers yesterday, the fellow mentioned that the wheels are not clear coated but are bare aluminum. He said that they will corrode quickly if not taken good care of. This is a '14 DLX, so just plain silver wheels. Any tips or known good working products to maintain the finish?

I find it hard to believe that the wheels are not clear coated. My 2014 Canadian model are definitely clear coated, but then they are silver with black centre details. I just wipe them down with a rag soaked in WD40.

Without clear coating brake dust would soon become embedded in the pores of the aluminum and they would look terrible.
