Cleaned my wheels... wow.

My dad was off work today, so he helped take off the snow tires and go back to stock.

When we put on the snow tires in November, I wasn't able to wash them off, so before I put them back on I needed to give them a good cleaning. I used some Meguiar's Hot Rims - All Wheel Cleaner. Wow. I was pretty much amazed.

Before:


After:


Full car pics will come tomorrow after I can wash/wax for the first time...

They were ok, since it was just the tire that touched as far as I could tell. Also were only like that for about two minutes while I cleaned them out.
