Message	should give you a nice finish. If you're using a cabinet, make sure to drain out whatever crap is in there now, don't mix the media. More then likely, there's iron content in the old media & you'll impregnate the alloy with iron particles. Potentially leading to a poor looking finish over time. I'm not sure if the wheels are the same alloy as the other aluminum bits under the hood. If it is, then the #8 will make them look great. I'm probably going to try this with the Z-Lab wheels later this week.
