Help with taking care of New wheels......

I was wondering what I need to do to take care of my new wheels???

Good choice on the wheel.

The choice of what you use to clean it will be the biggest part of keeping them scratch free. A natural fiber boars hair brush (like the one linked by Iomcamaro) is a good place to start. Its the softest natural fiber available and the safest kind for use on delicate wheels.

Use a heavy blast of water to dislodge larger particles from the surface before you start cleaning. Use a highly concentrated mixture of soap and water to clean them with the brush... more soap and bubbles is better to promote maximum surface lubricity and protecting the wheels finish.
