How to clean Chrome AMG Aero IIs

What should I use to clean chrome AMG Aero IIs?

Someone said that chrome does not last for more than 2 years in California. I hope he is mistaken.

try www.carcareonline.com

usa a good wheel cleaner, Meguiar's, P21(www.P21.com)

wax them with a quality wax. a nice trick is to take the wheels off and coat the inner wheel with a thin layer of petroleum jelly, this prevents brake dust from etching into finish and makes future cleaning of inner wheel easier.

also apply a thin coat of anti-seize compound between suspension hub and wheel. makes wheels easier to remove in the future.

Wash 'em and wax 'em like any other painted surface of your car.

Stay on top of them, and they will reward you with extended service
