nah they dont stain, provided they are painted PROPERLY in the first place.
(spray paint WILL get stained quickly)

White rims just need a little more care to clean, that is all.

one of those little sponge bottle cleaners will go a long way with cleaning between spokes and whatnot as well

thank u hook.will try.

basically they are easy to clean as long as you dont leave them dirty for a long period.tend to be a bit difficult to clean and might even become stained if left for long periods

oh, and u only use those spray-on wheel cleaners when the wheel is dead cold eh Idea

if the wheel is warm, it tends to dry on the wheel and doesn't really clean anything
