Post IS BLEACH-WHITE OK TO USE?

IS IT OK TO USE BLEACH-WHITE ON MY TIRES NOW THAT I HAVE CHROME WHEELS? I CALLED THE COMPANY AND THEY SAID IT SHOULD BE OK BUT THEY DIDN'T SOUND SURE SO I WAS WONDERING WHAT YOU GUYS THINK? I WILL HAVE PICS OF MY 97 CHAMPAGNE TL WITH 18X7.5(+42, NO RUBBING) ALBA BLAZES ON IT VERY SOON!

Ok first stop yelling.
Try not to spray it on the rims and if you get some on the rims dont let it dry on the rim b/c it could damage the finish. Other than that it should be ok, unless Alba specifically says not to use it.

Don't use that cr@p. If I remember right, it's designed for tires with white walls. Go to the auto parts store and buy some good quality wheel cleaner. For the tires, just use a rag with some car soap on it.

Actually I used it on my old blazer. It worked great. It gets rid of the brown residue and makes tires black again so whn you armor-all it looks clean.

You could always pour some in a bucket and scrub it on so it doesn't get on your rims.

Just wash it with soap and water... Usually after I soap my car down, I use a seperate mitt, use the leftover soap and scrub the tires down, the wheels(even after using quicksilver to take the dust off the wheels) and then Exhaust..then i rinse the car off..
