    Thanks haha. I want one of those racing suits with the cooling pipes built in. But honestly my ac in the taco kicks ass compared to the cruisers ac. And I'm good to about 90 without ac anyway.

    You know I contemplated that for about 5 mins. Typed it both ways. But I was going by we're not = we are not. Were I didn't want to imply that were not sick weirdos. Rather that we are. I guess the sentence being a question would change the grammar.

    Anyone recommend a product to clean this crap off? More than likely going back to my old stock alloys and shelving the 2nd gen OR wheels I have on now. Until I decide on an aftermarket UCA, just don't want to have the tire sitting so close to the top of the spindle/steering knuckle (this is with 265/70s - can only imagine how it will be with 265/75s).

    WD40 works but really needs scrubbing. all the other wheel care products I've tried are worthless.

    Is it road tar? I remember having to clean that stuff off cars before and you need like a really strong detergent thats safe on paint. I forgot what i used

    Or maybe you can claybar it

    nope - old brake dust stains. Not pitted but its just on there. Even brake kleen has a tougher time than WD40. o_O

    I used this stuff on mine. This is a man's wheel cleaner, not that wussy shit you see someone using to clean a days worth of brake dust off.
