Using Bilburrys with that Vikan brush has always brought up rims really well. Exactly what I used on the M3 I detailed and you can see how they looked to start with.

And of course you can always jack the car up and go underneath it, or use ramps etc.......
I find using the pressure washer at low power after a Bilberry coat does just fine...now awaiting the extra storage for water so I can go on using it after the 5th April. Decent sized water butts (200l+) are rarer than X6's around here now. Nowhere's got them and most places have waiting lists, or they've jacked up the prices to ridiculous levels.
There was an interesting item in the press this week which worked out that to clean and properly rinse a car with the bucket system would use around 110litres whereas a hose would use less than 30litres. The reason given for the hoses being a concern was that people would leave them running for 30mins whereas in fact most users are more likely to have a trigger controlled spray nozzle attached - especially if on a meter.
