Just added a set of chrome wheels to my car and am wondering if I need to use a wax to protect them from moisture, grime, etc. I saw only polish products at the local parts store. Should I wax these wheels? If so, what to buy? Thanks!

I don’t wax the chrome on my bikes. I only use Turtle Wax chrome polish.
