hey guys hopin someone could help me out... washed my car today and on my front rims there seems to be brown spots in some of the grooves. i was thinking it was surface rust or somethin but if u rub it with a cloth for a while it starts to come off. anyone know what it is and how to get it off?
cheers

how old are the rims? most brand new rims come with this sorta of vasaleany stuff on them and after a weeks drive the break dust tends to stick to it nicely. cheers

Meguires 'Hot Wheels' does the job, spary on, leave for 30 seconds, then high pressure hose off. If needed finish it up with a cloth and elbow grease.
