Clearcoat???
I have the stock wheels below and need to know if they are clear coated. How can you tell? How do you clean stains and brake dust?

Thanks

I had those wheels in my 2001, and they have been one of my favorites. To keep as clean as they have, they would have to be clear coated.

Yeah, they are clear coated. Treat them just like you would your paint. (as in wash with soap and water, polish with automotive polishing compound, etc).
