nice work! do you use a powerstick or similar tool to clean the insides of the wheels? I always take mine off, but if there's an easier way, I'm all ears.

Although these wheels were filthy they weren't super hard to clean, the wide spaces between spokes allowed me plenty of space to work in with the EZ brush. I use my powersticks in hard to reach places like between calipers and spokes but these wheels only needed the EZ brush(IMO the best wheel cleaning tool you can buy). The volvo was only a few months old so its not like I was dealing with many many months or years of heavy brake dust buildup, in which case taking off the wheels would have been a great benefit.
