    I'm looking for a quality wheel cleaner for my Tacoma. One.that will clean the wheels without harming them. I see a lot out there but I'm not sure they won't harm my wheels, the wheels are OE M on my 16. Thanks, Tom

    Dawn dish soap and an old micro towel... Those chemicals are bad on tires, calipers, flex lines etc... Dawn and a little elbow grease are as good as any.
