I have the stock 17" aluminum wheels. The manual says not to use a chrome cleaner as it could damage the aluminum wheels. What do you suggest to use to clean aluminum wheels?

wheel cleaner

If your aluminum wheels are clear-coated you need a mild cleaner. Auto parts stores carry numerous brands of spray on cleaner. Read the labels. After cleaning apply a few coats of wax to expedite cleaning the next time.

I use Stoner Invisible Glass... does a nice job. I also use it on the tail pipes, inside and out.

You should treat the finish on your wheels the same as the paint on the car. The wheels are aluminum, but they are coated with a clear paint top coat. Do not use any abrasives or harsh wheel cleaners, you will strip off the clear coat or scratch it. Usually about twice a year I coat my wheels with a good carnuba past wax, that seems to hold up pretty well in between washings.
