Recommend a wheel brush

Hi,

Can anyone recommend a good wheel cleaning brush? I've found a few online (ADS, etc.) but I can't determine the correct size to get for our factory wheels. I want it to easily get in between the spokes and get far back.

This is the one I use.

It'll work fine for our wheels, but it won't be able to get behind the narrow gap of the front brakes.

Baby bottle wand brushes. I use cheap ones ($2-3 for a pair) and they work great especially cleaning between the wheel and the calipers. I've got a thread about them somewhere around here.

Try an Autoglym wheel brush with Autoglym custom wheel cleaner... If you guys can get them in the states.

I take my wheels off once a month to clean the inners rather than using a long wheel brush.

Dollar store brand soft bristled tooth brushes work great!

I've tried a couple pep boys brushes and this is the one i ended up with. I almost gave up and went with the Daytona Wheel Brush but found this for $4.50.

If you have a Big Lots near you, see if they still have a Megs brush. I bought every one in my area. Never know, you might get lucky.
