What polish for bullett wheels?
If this has probably been covered before, sorry for asking again.
What should I use to polish the outer edges of the bullett wheels that come with the Pony package?
Thanks!

Factory alloy wheels have a tough plasticized coating over the entire surface -- generally, and often the exception being the decorative center cap -- whether they be painted an accent color (e.g., the spokes) or machined/polished (e.g., the edge of the rim).
You can use a variety of products depending on your needs or preference... a cleaner wax or spray wax is often used for shine and protection.
If you need to deal with some surface defects, try a wheel specific polish/wax that's safe for wheel clearcoats (you don't want a metal-only polish). You can even a plastic polish, such as Mothers, which they recommend for polishing and protecting plasticized coatings on wheels.
Wash frequently with car wash and a mitt dedicated to your wheels. Use a spray-on, hose-off wheel cleaner appropriate for the finish ("All Wheel" or "Clearcoat-Safe") if you get excessive brake dust that won't otherwise wash off. I like to spray that on the mitt and wipe directly on the wheels by hand with a strong bucket of sudsy water for an initial rinsing of the mitt, followed a strong rinsing of the wheels with the hose (I do the wheels, tires, wheel wells, etc. before I do the rest of the car).
