My new Peugeot 3008 is the first car with diamond cut wheels where some say they are more prone to corrosion. Has anybody protected their wheels? Somebody at work says the one to get is C5 Wheel Armour....

The GT line has the 18" Detroit matt Haria two tone diamond cut alloy wheels so this would presumably go on to the black and metalic parts.

Have you any experience of this or other products to protect wheels while they're still fairly new?

Thanks

I have used Collinite 845 Insulator Wax (available from Amazon) on both Diamond Cut and Powder Coated alloys and have to say the results have been superb.... Brake dust hoses off with ease and it has lasted for three years on my wife's 2008.
OK it's not cheap but no need to keep re-applying
