Default I use Simple Green to clean my wheels, and some tire-foam product for tires.
Not the most advanced expensive stuff out there, but it works for me.

Default Used to use maguiar's (sp?) tire gel, now I'm leaning more toward Lexol Vinylex.
Seems to go on easier and doesn't look as shiny.

Soap, Zaino for the wheels and Aerospace 303 for the tires.

Stoner's for tires (and windows) -- seperate products, of course.

Default yup... and use a paint brush to apply
learned that from a detailer. use a scrubber to clean behind the spokes... its the best way for sure.
