I use Mothers Mag and Aluminum Polish.

If they are REALLY BAD go to the hardware store and find about a 5" polishing or buffing wheel (2 or3 of them really) and an arbor to fit it. The wheels are sown together in circles to make a round buffing pad about 5/8th" thick. If you need to you can cut the first or second "circle" of sewing to make it spread into corners. I used this method and polished the outside of mine in about 5 or 6 hours using Mothers Mag and Wheel polish (after spraying some wheel cleaner on them,,,,NOT a good idea BTW).

 

i just got done polishing 2 of em with Mothers polish..i am goin to post pics tomorrow. They are lookin A LOT better then the other 2 wheels. I am goin to look for the Mother Billet Metal Polish tomorrow.

 

I have noticed that with TTII wheels the "spokes" are of a lesser quality aluminum and don't polish up nearly as nice as the rim itself. I've been trying to find something to make mine shine better but so far no luck. Next step is sandpaper but I really don't want to work that hard

 

hey brent..what kind of polish do u use? I am using BLue Magic..it seems to work a lot better then Mother MAg Polish. I have been looking for the Mothers Billet Metal Polish but non of the places have it around here

btw my wheels have some curbrash on em..do u know how much its goin to cost me to get that fixed?

Thanks

I've tried about everything they sell at Wal-Mart, K-Mart, Autozone, etc. I've also used some stuff a guy around here sells locally and it seems to work better than all the other products I've used. Forgot the name though.

As for curb rash... I don't know how much it'll cost. Depends on who does it and how bad it really is. Your best bet is to just get a few quotes and go from there.
