A while back I did some research, and from what I recall, it's not a good idea to use on wheels. They'll start stripping and you either have to clean it off entirely or refinish all the time. Powder coat the wheels

I would say: Grilles yes. Rims no.

I painted the lower grille on my Audi with it. Because it is rubbery and has some give it stands up very well to road debris and doesn't chip like regular paint.
