How do you remove rust spots from wheel hub?
Anyway, was wondering on best to way to remove. Someone recommended wiping hub with WD40 sparingly on a cloth. Seems almost suicidal to me to use WD40 anywhere near brakes??? Any other recommendations, I plan on waxing the hubs well after cleaning to prevent this happening again. Thanks |

Best longterm fix is to paint the wheel hubs with durable silver paint (for example the same type used for brake calipers) . I used this on mine and they held up very well for the past 2yrs. I recently replaced all 4 rotors with new ones and BMW has actually now changed the rotors to have anodized hubs which should be durable during NE winters

Good to hear about the hubs Jan. Are u a detailing freak like some of us ;-)
I hate how the rotors and calipers look like crap compared to the rest of the car. Been thinking about painting them + the rotor hubs, but no one seems to *guarantee* the paint will last on the rotors. Remember Art's post about the nickle plating. I don't that lasted well for him too. |
