So I have had set of 18" style 5s for over a year now. Bought them brand new. Have factory brake set-up/pads and they cause a lot of brake dust. I clean the wheels once a week and every other week remove and do a full cleaning. After a year I notice the wheel lips are kind of stained with the color of brake dust. How do I bring back the luster the wheels once had? They have the factory finish on them with clear coat and all. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

I clay bared my lips and took away everything.

There are asid based washes that will work very well but I wouldn't use them for wheels as new as yours because they can do damage too and stain your wheels. There are non asid truck washes that work if your wheels are not too bad. But as a rule don't use asid based cleaners if there is some other option.
