Hi,

I have attached a picture of some white spots on the wheels of our 2010 Honda Odyssey. They are smooth and do not have a rough surface. The spots are mainly on the circumference, or outer part of the wheel, as the picture shows, but some are closer to the center. What can they be? Is this something that can lead to corrosion and eventual wheel damage, or can I just leave it alone?

Please let me know. Thank you!

your pic didn't come out but if your wheels are aluminum get some mothers wheel polish for aluminum or something similar and polish it off.they will be ok maybe until next year. there are coatings you can put on them a well but then it takes more time, money etc.
