One more clean picture

I really would like to know how to clean these wheels as it took me 10 minutes per wheel with it still not being great .. .

neeeds bigger wheels

Get some of this......Bilberry Wheel Cleaner.

Non caustic/acidic. Raj uses it too and reckons it's good stuff.

Spray on with a fine sprayer, wait a few minutes and wash off. Job done. Works brilliantly even on filthy wheels. Smells nice too. We had all our wheels coated with Metalmate before delivery. Helps keep the dust under control.

BTW you must remember not to stand in the nude when you are taking pictures of shiny cars !

Good grief, do you need surgically clean wheels or something??!! They're enamelled so i find the dirt comes off very easily with a quick wash with Mcguires Gold along with the rest of the car.

I'm suspectIng you have higher standards of car shininess than me!

Very nice... Enjoy! one day ill have one.

Looks great, I clean my wheels by not having ones with small holes in them that and use wheel guard, keeps them slick and easy clean.

It is not actually the cleaner side, but the access to them. Non of my brushes are deep enough and I can not get my hands in to clean the inside of the wheels. On my M wheels, I can get my hands in and clean all around - not with these things.

I am sure it will get easier once I have been to NL and they will be coated in teflon so the brake dust should run off ok, but still would need something to get access inside.

Very nice! I like the light coloured interior contrasting against the dark exterior.

Nice one PVR, great colour choice too.
@535boy My Mrs was the opposite as she wanted black but I loved the Carbon, as it is listed as Black I got away with it

Lovely motor pvr and huge congrats.

As for the wheels, as recommended above get some Bilburrys as it is superb stuff. Spray it on and inside the wheels and use this http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/wheels-an ... d_391.html to get through the spokes. It will easily get through your spokes.

I have that brush, but even though it removes the worst of it, it leaves a black grime that you can only get off using a sponge in your hand which is fine for my other cars as I can get my hands through (and usually cut them on the brake areas ...).

Get a girlfriend with small hands!! A few advantages to that and one would be getting them through the spokes!!

Which explains your comment about splitting up with your girlfriend in the other thread then
