    That's what I do on my personal truck! Every time I rotate the tires (at 7,000 mile intervals) I thoroughly clean and wax the barrels while they're off the vehicle. In between tire rotations I just clean the barrels on the vehicle with a wheel brush or by simply wiping.

    I could certainly see doing it during tire rotation, good idea. But taking the wheels off every car wash time to clean barrels? ah, hell naw. I aint that dedicated.

    Something like a Speed Master Wheel Brush or the Speed Master 'wooly' brush kit will allow you access the barrels without removing the wheel. I clean the barrels on my truck once ever month or so, and it makes them really look clean.

    You get a new Caddy yet? That Caddy might have just saved your life.

    Yes, kept emailing Jason about it. It just happened an hour ago.

    This is getting ridiculous... I tried getting online several times yesterday and couldn’t get it to work. I’m shocked it’s finally working right now. Lol.

    ...And yes, I bought a new Caddy. Well not brand new, but you know.Wheel techniqe





    I’m very fortunate I was in a full size car. I’m also fortunate the side impact airbag worked as planned... But most importantly I was wearing my seatbelt. I never drive without buckling up.
    It’s a big reason I’m still here today.Wheel techniqe
