rusty wheels

anyone else getting rust marks on the inside of their rear wheels? whats causing it? seems that every time i wash the car, after a few days theres the rust spots again. i keep the rotors painted so i dont think its coming from there.

DId you clean out the inside cavities of the wheel when you painted the rotors? Those cavities ride on the hub, possible its still coming out of there especially if you went a while with rusty hubs/rotors like I did. haha
