i have 17'' SS 10 spoke wheels.... you can see them if you click on the myspace link.... are they chrome or polished alluminum... i went to by cleaner this weekend i and bought it for chrome wheels. It said it was corrosive and i shouldnt use it on polished alluminum.

Thanks

If GM uses the same "chroming" process on the SS wheels as they do the Z28s, they're chromed steel and should be washed only with car wash soap.

I have the chromed steel wheels on my car, tried using a fancy wheel cleaner and it actually took off very small pieces of the chrome finish in some inconspicuous places.

looks like crome to me. Just use a mild soap with no abraisives in it make sure of that
