Default Removing wheels to clean them
Do you take off your wheels when you clean them?

I never have but I kind of know I probably should! I wonder how many of us goes to these lengths to clean their rims?

About once a month, when I get them on a lift for a proper shampoo, and a quick coat of polish.

The hard water we have here is a bane for the polish and finish.
