What would happen if.........................

i put a pair of yellow tuffs in bleach?
Basically i have got a set of alloyed hubbed ones that have dirt stains on. I have put WHITE 3 sets through the bleaching process before but i wondered if it would work on coloured tuffs? I am going to eventually dye them yellow too but i want the dirt to come out first.
Would bleach do this or would i need to use light sand paper in order to get the best results?

from what others have done, i think it just cleans all the grime off them rather than bleach out any colour??
just need to grease up the hubs so they don't go rusty and fook up.....but then you knew that already didn't ya

As Pickle says, the bleach does not remove the colour just the ingrained dirt.
Like Pete's a bit of elbow grease and before dyeing...
Don;t foget to grease the alloy hubs, bleach has a tendency to turn them black
