This cleaner works very well.
http://www.autogeek.net/sonax-wheel-cleaner.html Then prep with IPA or like product such as. http://www.polishangel.us/collection...angel-ultrared Coat them with this. They will be easy to clean, and will stay cleaner longer between washings. Avoid the armorall, and dust barrier products as sold by the autoparts retailers. http://m.polishangel.com/#/product/s...-wheel-coating |

I use a mixture of simple green and water. Let it sit for a few minutes then wipe away with microfiber and they look awesome.
And mine are white so they get dirty very easily.

I generally just wash them with the same soap and water as the rest of the car. I like to use the Adams Deep wheel cleaner too. When the car gets detailed I pull the wheels and get them spotless with some Adams Swirl and Haze remover and Revive Hand Policy mixed 50/50 then follow it up with some Adams Quick Sealer. Makes clean up a breeze...

No special care should be needed if you frequently wash. Get them clean, apply a wheel wax, and then simply wash with the rest of the car.
