cleaning rims
Has anyone tried to clean their rims using a power washer on a very low setting? Curious to see if this would work to get that grime that seems to be glued onto my rims.

I gotta try the simple green. Regular wheel cleaners haven't worked for me. I have the 3.0 rims with the 8 million spokes. And on the inside of those spokes it's a textured finish and that's where the dirt and grime sticks and is impossible to get off.
