These wheels are clear coated. Don't use any metal polish on them, as your not touching metal when your scrubbing them.

I have used just car wash soap and water from day one. They shine as best a polished aluminum and clear coated wheel can. People have stripped off the clear coat and polished them up again, but it really doesn't help much.

Just treat them like your cars paint, the finish is a little more forgiving however.
