With the sports sinc they are gray on the inside of the spokes it looks normal if you leave them dirty on the back side of the wheel.. makes it blend in better.. I may even paint mine black so I don't have to worry about cleaning in there.. If you just clean the outside of the 16spokers it doesn't really take anymoretime then a 5spoke wheel.. probably less since you don't hav to clean the backside..

Anything from baby bottle brushes to custom made. Just make sure ends are covered so as to not scratch.

Remember to wax wheels, to make cleaning them easier.
Some of the nicest (but expensive) come from Griot's Garage.

Premium. They sure look hard to clean. I had similar wheels w/BMW 330xi and each wheel [to do a good job] took about 5 minutes!!!!!

very cool. I'm guessing it works well or you wouldn't be promoting it..
One thing I noticed was.... In 3 months I never used tire shine. This w/e I did. Never again. The 16 spokes do not like tire shine. Wheels are all greasy now with random streaking. And yes, I wiped them down. I did not spray them and let them dry on their own.
