#80436, "Rust..."


          

Ok so I bought my car, and the stock GSX rims have a little rust showing. I was wondering if you guys have ever had this problem, and did a rust remover substance work, or did you try something else.

My bad guys, it's probably oxidation. Would an Eagle One Wheel Cleaner get rid of it?

I would think that would get rid of it. Use that and an old tooth brush so you can scrub it a little.
