I use that Blue magic shmooze on my american racing rims... it works waaaaay better than that turtle was crap. Windex will work, but it will just clean them, rim cleaner usually has protectant in it to prevent rust and futur gunk from clinging, so use windex so your rims look good on your way to the auto store to buy the real rim cleaner..
