Some vehicle's wheels are aluminum and do not have a protective coating. Other vehicles have laced wheels with chrome plated rims and zinc or chrome plated spokes. Damage from harsh chemicals, acid based wheel cleaners, brake dust and lack of maintenance can occur. Regular washing and the use of a corrosion protectant will help to maintain their original appearance. Harley-Davidson WHEEL AND TIRE CLEANER (Part No. 94658-98) is recommended for cleaning wheels and tires. Then use HARLEY GLOSS (Part No. 94627-98) to protect the wheel surfaces.

NOTE

It is imperative that the wheels are cared for weekly to guard against pitting and corrosion.
Corrosion of these components is not considered to be a defect in materials or workmanship.
