    Help cleaning extremely dirty rims

    thanks for all the replies. I tried several things but I ended up using GoJo hand cleaner. I used a soft cloth and had to scrub the stains out. Some of them were very hard to remove.

    Help cleaning extremely dirty rims

    I recently came upon a really good deal to pick up some of the 20 inch limited rims for the expy. While cleaning them there were many spots that would not come off with car wash soap and a rag. I went to the store and picked up some eagle one, acid free, rim cleaner. This did not help at all...

    Hello all, New to owning an expedition and have been searching for the right one for over a year. I finally picked one up at the right price, 2008 XLT with 66,000 miles. Truck is in great overall shape. I have been going through the truck trying to find any issues and fixing them as I go...
