After having to clean the wire wheels twice in the past week or so, I'm wondering if there are any special tips/tricks/tools to make the job easier? Especially around and behind the spoke ends.

Thanks.

Hi George,
I have found that a solution of Simple Green and water sprayed from a one or two gallon pump garden sprayer works great. The amount or concentration of Simple Green depends on how much grease is on the wheels. Once a year I remove the wheels and clean as described then wax the rims inside and out. That seems to help them stay clean.
