    hey guys just picked up my taco and it came with some pretty decent MT 16" wheels.. They have some oxidation & discoloration... no chiping or flaking and no rust.

    Wondering if there is a product/method that can enhance the look of thses things, besides the normal wheel cleaning products that don't do much other than remove normal dirt.

    By rubbing on them you can see that they have the potenial to look way better than there current state... any help fellas

    dunno if you already got this figured out but I would recommend Mother's Mag and Aluminum polish.
