scorpionking0102 Posted August 6, 2018 Report Share Posted August 6, 2018 I have a 2016 Edge Sport with the upgraded 21" wheels. I have always been diligent about keeping them clean and waxed to prevent brake dust from ruining them. Initially, the wheels inside were polished aluminium and after 12,000 miles have turned to black,almost as if they were painted. Has anyone else out there experienced this phenomenon?

akirby Posted August 6, 2018 Report Share Posted August 6, 2018 Are you sure it’s not just built up brake dust? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scorpionking0102 Posted August 6, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2018 I'm pretty sure it's not discoloration due to brake dust, because it's a smooth gloss finish as if they were painted. I clean the inside of the rims each time I wash it. But,I will try a cleaner specifically formulated that removes brake dust without harming the finish on the wheels to see if it works,thanks.

akirby Posted August 6, 2018 Report Share Posted August 6, 2018 I think somebody came in the middle of the night, masked off and painted the inside of your wheels. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
