I just had black Fuel Hostage rims put on my Ram and am wondering what people use to clean theirs? I had Boss rims on another vehicle and used something that hazed the finish, so I want to avoid that this time around. I saw on Fuel's website to only use soap and water, but am hoping something like Adam's Deep Tire Cleaner is okay to use to get the rims super clean. If anyone has any products they've used with good results please let me know, also let me know what to definitely avoid! Thanks!

There are some cleaners labeled clear coat safe but soap and water is the safest. Ive used simple green as well without damage.

Like above^^^ I've used Simple Green before on different types of rims and had no problem, also soap and water. I would think that you shouldn't use anything with abrasive in it. After you get them cleaned up I'd put a good sealant on them, or even a good wax, although the sealant will last longer. They should be much easier to clean after you put a sealant or wax on them.
