i used meguires hot rims, just spray it on and get a rag or brush and clean all the dirt out, a simple wash wont get it out, you need to get right in there and dig it all out.

I've used Fairy Powerspray, but apparently it's toxic shit, but squirt on, leave for a few mins, and with a soft brush or small sponge just wipe the crap off then spray with hose, easier to do by taking the wheels off imo.
