I bought a set of these alloy wheels some years ago and I think they look good on my '81 242DL. However they came with a rather heavy and stubborn coating of what I believe is brake dust. I tried several spray on cleaners with no results. I'm thinking of taking them to an alloy wheel cleaning shop (pricey!). My question is these look like they may have a very light gray coating originally. The wheels say Volvo in the casting. Can anyone confirm this?
