CUSTOMER INFORMATION
After your wheels have been installed, make sure the installer completes the checklist on the installation instructions supplied with each wheel, and that you have verified each step with them. Remember to re-torque the nuts or bolts after 25 miles of use. Failure to re-torque the nut or bolts is unsafe and could cause a serious accident. Nuts and bolts must be re-torqued every time they are installed.
Keep this document with the owner’s manual and give it to the new owner when the vehicle is sold.

WHEEL MAINTENANCE GUIDELINES
Alloy wheels require special care in order to keep them in good condition. Proper maintenance will prevent peeling, pitting and corrosion. In order to protect your wheels’ finish from deterioration and to prevent your warranty from being voided, we recommend that you follow these steps:

1. Wash your wheels on a weekly basis with non-detergent soap and water, using a soft brush or sponge. Cleaning your wheels frequently will remove salt, dirt and brake dust that can be corrosive to the finish.

2. Beware of car washes that use steam cleaners, scouring pads, bristle brushes and/or tire cleaners. High temperatures, rough cleaning materials and corrosive chemicals can cause permanent damage to your wheels.

3. Never spray cold water on extremely hot wheels. Allow your wheels to cool before cleaning them. Extreme temperature change can cause damage or discoloration to the finish.

4. Special care/maintenance procedures by finish type:

All Gloss Finish Painted/Machined/Milled Wheels:
Wash on a weekly basis with non-detergent soap and water, using a soft brush or sponge. A non-abrasive (without additional cleaning/polishing agents) automotive wax should be applied after cleaning to help maintain their appearance.

All Matte or Satin Finish Painted/Machined/Milled Wheels:
Wash on a weekly basis with non-detergent soap and water, using a soft brush or sponge. Ensure any soap used does NOT contain any additional wax or polishing agents. Regular, non-wax soaps are fine, but any other maintenance products used must be specifically designed for matte finishes. NEVER buff, polish or wax the matte finish as this will create glossy spots/highlights and ruin the matte effect.

All Vapor Chrome (PVD) Wheels:
Wash on a weekly basis with non-detergent soap and water, using a soft brush or sponge. A non-abrasive (without additional cleaning/polishing agents) automotive wax should be applied after cleaning to help maintain their appearance. DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES USE CHROME WHEEL CLEANING PRODUCTS. The vapor chrome (PVD) finish has a protective clear coat just like a painted wheel that will be irreparably damaged by the harsh acids and chemicals in chrome cleaning products. Use of chrome or other type of corrosive cleaners on a vapor chrome (PVD) finish wheel will void the cosmetic warranty.

All Chrome Wheels (EXCEPT Vapor Chrome / PVD, see above):
Wash on a weekly basis with non-detergent soap and water, using a soft brush or sponge. Specialized chrome finish cleaners may also be used, but be very careful to follow product application instructions as they can easily damage the wheel finish if used incorrectly. A non-abrasive (without additional cleaning/polishing agents) automotive wax should be applied after cleaning to help maintain their appearance

5. In the case of machined, milled or chrome finishes, we recommend that you remove your alloy wheels and install a set of painted alloy or steel wheels for winter. Snow, slush, sand and road salt are hard on these finishes and can destroy them in a short period of time.

6. To store your alloy wheels, remove the center caps, then wash and dry all parts thoroughly. Place in a clean bag and keep in a dry place.

7. If you hit a curb or pothole, or have an accident and suspect structural damage, have your wheels inspected immediately by a licensed mechanic. If structural damage is found, replace the wheel immediately.
