Marlene,
Eastwood Company put out a product called Nyalic. This coating can
withstand high wheel temperatures. I have used it on various parts and they
seem to be holding up well. The only thing is the salt may wreak havoc on
almost any coating. I live in Chicago burbs and I reapply it every spring
just to be safe. I take the wheels off and clean them with a hand held
buffing tool to clean them and then apply the Nyalic.
