I just use the flatish Kent ones that Home Base sell - others sell copies - and have one bent thro 90 degrees to clean the back of the spokes, one twisted in the other axis by maybe 45 degrees to reach round the sides of the spokes and one in its original state to reach the flat sections.

rich - love it about the sponge
As for cleaning, ive got the brush Tim has.
To be honest though, brushes are more hassle than its worth imo!
You always get little lines of brake dust and dirt left on the wheels, they flick brake dusty water everywhere and are an absolute pain on multispoke wheels.

the guys at polishedbliss tried heaps of them until they found what they believe to be the best (they use it on VERY expensive wheels).
It's also cheap as chips

I have that EZ Detailing brush, it does a super job cleaning my alloys. But I couldn't help but feel that the bristles could be slightly softer. But I suppose if they were it wouldn't remove dirt as well.
I use it about every other time I clean my car, and a sponge the other times.
Just wondering, do people with multispoke alloys ever clean behind the spokes, inside of the wheel often??
