Rims

Rims with spokes are the ones you can notice all the brake,road crap the most.It's so much easier to keep on top of the rims a few times threw the summer (depending how much you drive it).I was never picky about my rims until i got my '03 GT with the Bullitt rims.Being grey on the back side of those rims really showed all the crap.

Ive never pulled the rims off, though I should have at times. It is hard to reach the grime in the back.

CTC has a long semi tough brush that i use, but it still doesnt get it all.

The brush idea is a good one. With the back rims I can get the hand through but the fronts (larger rotor) not possible
