Polishing wheels on Ford Chassis
Any recommendations on polishing aluminum wheels on Ford 53 chassis. Do not know mfg. Freightliner uses Alcoa but do not know what Ford uses.

All F53's have steel wheels with chrome beauty covers. I have never seen one with Aluminum rims, but I haven't seen all of them yet either...
Our 2013 Winnebago Adventurer is built on the 22,000 lb. F53 chassis. It has 4- 22.5" aluminum wheels made by Accuride. The inner duals are still steel wheels. We were looking for a 22.5" wheel for the spare tire we purchased and found about the only wheels available were the Aluminum ones from Ford at a little less than $900.00 per wheel.
The 16,000 lb. chassis, the 18,000 lb. chassis, and the 20,500 lb. chassis come standard with steel wheels and beauty rings. The 22,000 lb. chassis, the 24,000 lb. chassis, and the 26,000 lb. chassis come with 4 aluminum wheels and 2 steel wheels (inner duals).
