    i just made a solution of it, got a cloth dipped in the solution and wiped down the wheel, the dirt comes off without too much effort, then spray it all off

    you can leave the wheels on if you like, doesnt make a diff

    ... can't believe nobody has stated the most obvious solution yet.
    De-greaser or as auto shops have renamed it rim cleaner or something like so.
    We used to use it at the dealership, spray it on and leave for like 5 -10 minutes depending on severity and then spray it off using high pressure. may want to spot test before hand as it may be harmful depending on the concentrate.
    Why hello there
