I was using a brush that I picked up at The Home Depot that seemed to work well (it's like a big, semi-circle of medium stiff fibers, sold for house cleaning). The first time I washed my new car, though, I got better results from using a new microfiber mitt (which I only used on the wheels, thanks). Any other suggestions? Also, how the hell do you clean the lug nut holes without resorting to being a crazy obsessive person with a box of Q-Tips?

Re: Recommended Wheel Cleaning Tools?
You can go to something like autogeek.net and check out their brushes and accessories.
I have one of these for getting into the wheels:
Little pricey but works great.
And a soft brush like this for the face of the wheel:
Usually I spray the cleaner on, go over with the two brushes, and then kind of wipe the corners, etc with an older MF cloth.2017 Subaru WRX Premium - WR Blue -
Re: Recommended Wheel Cleaning Tools?
Agree with Murr that you will be able to find a wide selection of automotive specific wheel brushes/accessories most easily from on-line detailing supply distributors.
We recommend matching the "aggressiveness" of your wheel brush to the sensitivity of your wheel finish. For example, if you have a chrome plated wheel, likely not the best idea to use a nylon bristled brush for cleaning. The more sensitive the wheel plating, the more you want to stick with accessory material which is not aggressive, like microfiber, & boars hair.Nick Winn
