Like we said, a wax or sealant will give them some protection from the elements, including salt. I use the Ultimate Paint Sealant twice a year, and Poly-Seal about once a month on all my wheels.

It works the same on chrome and you only need to apply every 4-6 months. I have also noticed far less brake dust sticking to my wheels when it is applied.

Sealers/ clear coats work wonders on polished aluminum as well
