Any long lasting wax or sealant will do. I have PB wheel sealant and it does do a good job, just not anything a strong sealant couldn't do either.

DG 105 will do a fantastic job on them. You can spruce them up periodically with AW too.

Can't add anything to the two above posts. They are spot-on IMO.

Even after cleaning the wheels with P21s Wheel Cleaner and then washing them with soap and water I like to put on a coat of Klasse AIO before applying a sealant. The AIO is some nice cleaning ability.

After I clean my chrome wheels I go over them with some Opti Seal

DG #105, or Opti-Seal.

I found Collinite 845 to be a very good wheel sealant and gives a real good shine to wheels.

DP, Poorboys, WheelWax all make a wheel sealant as wanted. DP has a minor cleaner in it, and one of my personal favs.

I have polished wheels which are generally a pita for maintenance (but look the best, IMO). Anyways, I have DG 105 applied to them and keep them up with AW after washing with ONR. This works pretty good, but recently tried OCW V2 on them and they are slicker and resist dirt much better than AW. So, I recomend DG 105 with OCW V2 :)

it looks like alot of people like duragloss 105.So say i would like to be able to protect the wheels and try 2 keep the brake dust away.would DG105 do the trick?or atleast if i rinse the wheel almost all the brake dust would come off?My Brake Pads on my firebird dust really badly.especially after drag racing or auto x.The front wheels are dark gray while the back wheels r still silver.lol

I like DG 501 followed by 105. Also use AW. In between I'll wipe down with DG 521 QD and never have baked-on brake dust issues.
German cars are great but the brake dust is ridiculous.

I use KAIO to clean/prep, and either Collinite 845 or DG105 and touch up with AW.
