What's the best product for wheels. I just started using Collilite 845 and seems work pretty well. Willing to try other recommendations.

I've used 845 and megs #21. I don't think it lasted very long. I might be wrong. So I recently coated them with carpro dlux

Hydro2 is a pretty popular choice

Does it hold up any better than 845?

I suppose it depends on your driving conditions. Hydro2 is a sprayed, silica-based sealant. From what I understand, yes. But marginally I think.
I would go with a coating for long-term (1-yr+) effects.

Nice car. When I can afford it, I'll be torn between this and a challenger

Thanks! Both are great cars. Feel lucky to have it my driveway.

DP wheel coating works pretty good. Good durability

For ease of use, hydro2. Recently got some and used it on my paint and wheels. Been on there for about 1.5 months now, so far so good. My wheels are matte black. Pretty sure it would last longer than a wax on wheels also.
For arguments sake, let's just say that any wax and Hydro2 have the same amount of durability...you will save SO much time using Hydro2, which made it worth it to me.

I've gotten over 5 months on my wheels using hydr02. And I drive my car hard. Long term, I would coat them with a product like CQ Dlux.

It's actually competition orange. Wasn't planning on black wheels but loved the color combination.Windows will be tinted in the spring!

The black wheels n my 2012 Corvette Centennial have posed a real challenge with brakendust. Recently I used Poor Boys Wheel Sealant and have been absolutely amazed at the results. Before using the product a 40 mile trip would result in obvious dust on the wheels. After using the product the same trip reveals hardy any brake dust on a white rag. I apply it very sparingly weekly and am very satisfied with the product.
