Wheel Coating

[H60mguy]

I'm about to do my annual clay, wax, seal, glass coating on my S4 and wanted to get the wheels coated as well. I will be using Myabi Coat with Overcoat on the body panels.

With the Titanium package wheels (2014) would that coating be ok or should I buy a wheel specific type?

Thanks!

Not familiar with that particular coating but it should work unless noted otherwise. I've always used DP wheel coating which is now Mckees 37. Good stuff.

Tried another one based on some reviews I've read and may be switching over to this.

Clean up your wheels with some Car Pro TRIX tar/iron remover; polish them with your favorite product/pad and once they are good to go hit them with either the above McKees 37 or Pinnacle Black Label Diamond Wheel Coating.

I've never heard of that coating either. I am personally a fan of CQuartz DLUX on wheels though. I've heard good things about DP as well though as PDQGP said.

for a good wheel coating try Gyeon Rim Coat

Another vote for Mckee's 37. It is a little expensive but super slick and repels most of the brake dust.

As a rule of thumb, if it's good for your paint, it should be good for your coated wheels, and that should give you a good level of protection.
If your car is a daily driver and it's exposed to much harsher conditions, then a dedicated wheel coating product like the one Phil is recommending three posts up would be a good choice, since it's designed to resist extreme temperatures and more grind, if you will.
