I have had good luck cleaning the inside of the wheel with Eagle 1 A2Z and the brush mentioned by Paul Marangoni.

You need to have some of the really strong wheel cleaning stuff -- the kind that detailers use.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Those of us who have these wheels know what a PIA it is to clean them. I have searched all over for a brush that could get inside these wheel without killing my hands. All the local discount stores, car care stores and a couple of the after market online car care places. No one had a brush long enough and narrow enough to get through to the farthest inside part of the wheel. Well, someone on another board posted a link to a place I had not heard of. So I went there, checked it out, and ordered the 085-0631 brush. I just used it and it is exactly what's needed for these wheels. For those of you in the same boat as me with a garage full of useless brushes, check out this place (no affiliation.):

I'm a happy camper....
I don't recommend that brush. Be careful. I used to use the same brush, and in the course of about a year, I damaged the clear-coat finish on my wheels (Sport Design). I had the wheels refinished last year. Now I use a brush that I purchased at Pep-Boys. It's the same one that you can get from Meguiar's.
Click here - it's called Ultra Soft Wheel Brush
.
I have the same wheels and picked up a spray on cleaner which does not hurt the clear coat - I use it every time I wash my baby - my wheels still look new after 11K miles and 7 months
You need to have some of the really strong wheel cleaning stuff -- the kind that detailers use. I'll check teh label on mine. It's a LOT more powerful than anything else sold "over the counter." You don;t need to use a brush nearly as much.
I agree with cleaning SANS brush. Besides that brush (085-0631) is intended for wire wheels not for clearcoated Sport Design/Classis wheels. I always do the wheels last after washing the car and just use soapy water and a swall micro towel. I have found that there is not a product (spray on) that will get ALL the dirt/dust/etc. of in one pass so I just use the wet towel trick and get great results.

I try to keep a decent wax on the shiny surfaces of the wheels. All I need to do there is wipe with a damp cloth. Once the temperature drops below 85 in Tucson, I will try Rejex on the wheels.
I've been using the same brush (also bought at Pep Boys) for a few years, and it works great--very soft bristles, and a comfortable handle. I don't use any special wheel cleaners--just the bucket of soapy water when I'm finished washing the rest of the car.
Love the wheels but wouldnt buy they for this specific reason. the factory 18" turbos and the newer carrera lts look great and are simple to clean.
I wouldnt use a power washer on my car but a power washer and some spray on cleaner has worked well for me on the past.
