I've been using Eagle Wheel Cleaner on my last two cars. It works great.

But no wheel cleaner will get your wheels completely spotless. There's
always a need for a little elbow grease :)

I've used most of the wheel care products out there and Eagle One Wheel Cleaner
and Black Magic tire dressing works real nice.  To get the wheels really shinny
I usually put a coat of Eagle One Wet-Teflon Wax.  When using the tire dressing
just remember to wipe off any dressing that gets onto the wheel because its a
magnet for brake dust.

PS      Don't use Armor All's Quicker Silver product its to strong for  painted
wheels and it etches the shinny clear finish.  I had to get     my wheels
re-finished after using this product.

i called BBS today about wheel cleaner for my BBS RC's (yes arthur, they
have wheel locks) and they recommended the Eagle One stuff but a few months
back, an article in EC said BBS recommended P21S. your choice i guess.

 P21S does a great job, but Eagle One is just excellent at a fraction of the
price.  Also when cleaning your wheels use a soft terry cloth and a soft bristle
toothbrush for details.  NEVER use Armor All's Quick Silver product its
chemicals are to harsh/acidy.  After using Quick Silver once on my wheels I had
to get them refinished because the clear coat was etched,  the customer service
rep at Armor All said they were having problems with this product.

P21S gel.  I use it, I sell it, I use it some more, oh, AND it's Porsche and 
BBS approved.
