I got an EZ Detail Brush a few weeks back. I don't know how I did wheels without it now!
I can now reach the full inside of the wheel no problem. It even gets the backs of the spokes and between the calipers and wheel.
Its amazing how much of a difference having the inside of wheels clean makes on a car. Gives the wheels so much more depth.
I use the EZ detail brush for the insides and two other brushes for the face.<ul><li><a href="http://www.autogeek.net/ezdebrfca.html">http://www.autogeek.net/ezdebrfca.html</a</li></ul>

Yes, forget the brushes,
I bought a microfiber mitt from pep Boys, and I use that. It's a piece of cake to wipe the inside of the wheel and except for where the brake caliper is,(I use a long-handled skinny brush for that part, or you could do all 4 wheels, then roll the car back or forward a foot) I can reach all the way to the inside rim with my finger tips. I can also just grab each spoke with the mitt, making it a breeze to clean from front and back. A small detail brush handles the nooks and crannies, and I can clean an oem RS 4 wheel in about 2 minutes.
Oh, and I just use car wash soap and water, I never use any cleaners or chemicals on my wheels.

I used to really hate washing the RS4 reps on my A3. Then I found these brushes at
Cost Plus Imports in the kitchen section. Comes in a pack of 3, from small to mediumish. Costs about $4 for the pack. The largest one is just the right size to get into the nooks and crannies at the rim, and the thick fluff at the end prevents any chance of scratches.
