Wheel and Tire Care Piscataway NJ

Wheel and tire care has come a long way over the years. Used to be you just soaped up the tires and wheels while you were washing your car and left it at that. Of course, we used to wash our cars with dish soap too. Alloy wheels and high performance tires give us more incentive to take better care of our rolling stock; dish soap followed by silicone spray doesn't cut it anymore.

Given a few weeks without cleaning and care, wheels and tires quickly start to look poor. Alloy wheels with a bright finish look especially bad up front where brake dust accumulates rapidly. Depending upon where you live, the sidewall of the tire deteriorates as it ages. This deterioration speeds up due to air pollution, road salt, heat and humidity. Also, though you may be getting your tires clean by scrubbing with harsh detergents, you're also wicking the tire's moisture and promoting the deterioration you want to avoid.

Like we said, the days of washing wheels and tires with dish soap should be behind us now. You'll need a good quality car wash soap, liquid wheel cleaners, tire brush, wheel brush and any special brushes you may need to get between spokes and such. If you've got particularly intricate wheels, you may even need a small toothbrush to complete the job.
