Does anyone have a way to clean the wheels, around the lug nuts, without removing the wheels from the car ???

The local Action Auto (in Florida) has a brush that is call a "Nut Brush" (don't even go there!!!) that consists of 3 fine bristle brushes with a handle that fits around the nuts and will scrub the nuts and the back indentation VERY clean. Maybe other auto supply stores also stock them. I found that it works the best of anything else I have tried.

I use on old soft long bristle paint brush. On my chrome wheels I use a 50/50 solution of simple green and the brush. I have done this for years and the brush can clean just about anywhere. Even more complicated wheels that I have had on other cars could not hide the dirt from it
