clr might be a little harsh, i wouldn't recommend that until after some experimenting....yellow? i don't know what the hell would cause yellowing on wheels...try some wheel cleaner from autozone first, if you haven't already....

I found some yellow stuff on my wheels when I washed the car last weekend. I used a little "all wheel" cleaner from Eagle 1 and rubbed it in with my fingers...and the yellow stuff was gone. Let me now if you figure out what the yellow goop is.
