I have the optional 17" wheels on my GT, and I noticed while washing it the other day that there are small about 2" rectangle stickers on the rims. Almost looks like there was a wheel weight there. There is 1 on every rim and I can't seem to get it off. Its on there too good to come off while cleaning, and I tried to scrape it off with a razor but am scared to scratch the rim. Any one know what I'm talking about and have a good way to get them off? Thanks

Know what you are talking about, but have no clue on how to get it off. I just have the Premium V6 wheels, but its on them too.

GooGone...safe on the finish and removed the sticky. It's what I used on my rims and it worked perfectly.

I second the Goo Gone thing.....used it on my new wheels (each one had two stickers on them) and it worked great. Just give it enough time to soak in.

I'll third the goo gone thing - took the little squares you are talking about right off my bullits (one on each wheel).

Walmart, Kmart, Autozone, Pepboys, Advanced Auto, and even in most grocery stores, just about anywhere. Goof Off also works, but have to be careful with it, it eats through paint and melts plastic.

My dealer must have taken them off for me during prep. Cuz I have no idea what you guys are talking about. They weren't on my V6 premium wheels or the 17 in. Bullits I bought from Ebay.

WD-40 works pretty well too. It's also very good for removing tar from the lower areas of the body.
