Cleaning intervals

If dirt remains on the rim for an extended period, it can lead to permanent damage. Therefore, we recommend cleaning at intervals of no more than two weeks. During cleaning, the Wheels should be thoroughly cleaned of all dirt, both inside and out. In winter, the Wheels should be cleaned once a week. Any minor paint damage must be repaired immediately with clear coat to prevent corrosion from spreading underneath.

Cleaning agent

Warm water with dish soap or car shampoo is the best option. If you choose to use Wheels cleaner, be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions and the recommended contact time. Avoid using acidic, alkaline, or alcohol-based cleaning agents, as these can damage the paint and potentially the braking system.

Cleaning tips

  • To prevent the cleaner from drying out, the Wheels should be cold during cleaning
  • Use only clean and soft sponges or brushes
  • for cleaning
    light alloywheels unsuitable
  • If you choose to use a Wheelscleaner, under no circumstances should you exceed its
    maximum contact time.
  • After the cleaning process, the cleaner must be rinsed off thoroughly
  • Thorough cleaning always includes the inside surfaces
  • Repair paint damage immediately to prevent oxidation
  • Using a commercially available Wheelssealant will provide additional protection, but here too, it is
    essential to follow the manufacturer's instructions.
  • You should avoid car washes with harder brushes

Failure to follow these care instructions will not result in a general loss of warranty claims, but may lead to damage to the alloy wheels , which is not covered by the warranty according to the above warranty conditions.

Warranty loss in the case of so-called “optical wheel refurbishment”

Some workshops offer cosmetic Wheels refurbishment, claiming to repair damage. This process is a serious alteration to the rim's structure and strength, for example through machining or intense heating, and therefore voids the warranty! For safety reasons, we strongly advise against cosmetic wheel refurbishment.
