I doubt that they would make an OEM finish that would crack/ fall off because of a wheel-based cleaner.

On mine i just use normal car soap instead of a "wheel cleaner." unless ur wheels are insanely dirty i wouldnt use a wheel cleaner since most of them contain corrosives which mess ur wheels up most of the time. I have never had good experience with wheel cleaners but thats just my .02
