Hi, I have tried searching but nothing relevant to brand new alloys.
I am replacing my wheels with a new set and before they go on the car I want to give them the best protection that I can.
Any recommendations please, I normally go for Autoglym as its easy to get hold of but I have seen reviews for Swissvax and Mer with good results.
Thanks for any suggestions.

I would go with Gtechniq c5 wheel armour or Nanolex Professional Wheel Sealant if your looking for LONG term protection... Traditional waxes or sealants on wheels wont last but a couple of weeks before they need topping up

Chemical Guys Jet Seal 109 is a wonderful long term heat resistant protector and then just keep them clean and coat every month with either FK 1000p twice a year with GTechniq G3.

Nothing will touch GTechniq C5 for durability, and it's all I'll ever use on my own wheels again.

FK1000P, and other durable sealants work well too, but aren't nearly as durable or effective. Zaino Z2 Pro is a good choice too.
