I park my car on the street and the sprinklers get it everynight. After i clean them can i use a wax or something that will help this out?

Park somewhere else or cover your rims with a towel, cardboard or something...Windex (window cleaner) works well on chrome....

yup...i had the same problem. but I just covered the rims with some plastic. I tried wax and it worked for a little bit but the spots came back. Ur gonna have to clean the rims every day in the morning before the sun hits it. good luck [Cool]

Eagle 1 has a cloth chrome polisher that got out water spots from my chrome rims. it comes in a silver tin and its by the other wheel cleaner products at your local Kragen.
