My car has BBS forged aluminum alloy rims: that's right, it's an STi. It's a wonderful car and when the rims are clean the whole car looks better, no matter how dirty it is. When the whole car is clean and the rimes are dirty, it all looks dirty. So, there is always brake dust that needs to be agitated physically by something and this is that something. Just attach it to a drill (not included), and vroom vroom. The only drawback for me is that it still takes some time and I end up wanting to clean more of the car and it finally starts to seem as if it would have simply have been more cost-effective to just go to a good car wash, pay 16 and get the whole car cleaned, inside and out and waxed and vaccumed and everything. Anyway, if you don't want to spend more money over time and want an easy way to clean your wheels, even if you don't have an STi, this is a great product.

One of the most demanding chores of vehicle ownership is maintaining custom wheels, especially polished billet wheels. Such a task leads us to a a 40-minute chore (per wheel) by hand. Now, the patent-pending Mothers® PowerBall™ cuts the time down to a 5 minute chore which gives great results! The Mothers® PowerBall™ is the first foam polishing tool designed to revitalize billet, diamond plate, polished aluminum, stainless steel, plastic lenses, convertible top windows and much more. The Mothers® PowerBall™ is ideal for use on any uncoated, polishable metal finish. Its unique and durable spherical shaped construction compresses to fit tight spaces, so polishing difficult, intricate metalwork to a mirror-like finish is fast and easy.

The Mothers® PowerBall™ simply attaches to your electric drill. Instead of polishing small surfaces by hand, you can knock them out more quickly and with better results! This patent-pending detailing tool is made of professional grade closed-cell foam that is soft and highly absorbent. When you press the PowerBall™ to a surface, the sturdy foam maintains its shape so that there is a thick cushion between your vehicle and the drill. The individual foam tabs that compose the ball provide excellent polishing capabilities in combination with any polishing product. The PowerBall™ not only cuts your detailing time in half, it does a superior job!

Being custom auto enthusiasts, we love our rides to look good, but we want to limit the amount of time spent cleaning and the amount of money that it takes to keep them clean and all around good-to-go. The PowerBall™ retails around $30, which means the PowerBall™ is probably one of the most affordable time-saving tools you will ever buy. Versatile, reusable, and durable, the PowerBall™ will make polishing by hand a thing of the past.
