New GTD review

[richw911]

anyone got a trick to keeping those black shadow wheels clean?   

don't brake 

Go one better and don't drive it

As soon as I got mine home I removed the wheels, washed then sealed them with 3 coats of wheel wax. That was in December, even now they are clean after a blast with a pressure washer and a quick wash with car shampoo if necessary. Dry them afterwards to prevent water marks and they'll stay wonderfully clean and shiny. I'll repeat the above wax process as soon as the water beading decrease.

Detritus.

tried both and failed.  Its too much fun to drive (nearly 1000 in two weeks) and sometimes I need to brake and slow down when following a petrol car uphill...

Thanks for the suggestions - I'm going to give them a good wax polish as suggested and keep a microfiber cloth handy.  I am often waiting by the door (for herself to get ready) so this will keep me amused....
