Question Wheel Wax

Can this be used as a wheel wax for our wheels?

You can use any automtive wax on the wheels. I believe the wheels are simply painted a stnadard BMW silver Metallic. Hitting the wheels with wax really helps when you go to spray off the brake dust.

Any wax will help. They make a wax that is specifically for wheels but I haven't tried it yet so I don't know if it works any better that the paste wax you are looking at.

The recommended reapplication rates for Wheel Wax are insane. I use Zaino products on them and have found hem effective and durable. No magic bullet, but good.

I use Armor All Wheel Protectant. Since it's a spray, it takes just a couple of minutes to do all four wheels. Very effective at keeping brake dust from accumulating.
