Chrome Wheels and Brake Fluid
I had a calpiper start leaking really bad, got brake fluid all over my wheel, and discolored the chrome. It turned it cloudy white. Has anyone ever had this happen? What can I do to fix it?

Are these the stock wheels? If so they are most likely clear coated and that is what has turned white. You may need to use some paint stripper and remove the clear coat and then buff them and re-apply the clear coat.

Re: Chrome Wheels and Brake Fluid (Robert8096)
these are wheels that i had custom made by boze they are chrome so would there still be a clear coat over them. this does sound like you may be right i kinda felt like there may be a coating onthem but i was not sure they would do that on chrome.
