Meguiars hot rims. I have the same rims. If your carwash's are same as ours around here. Use their wheel cleaner wash it off spray hot rims on let sit on each rim for about 30 seconds wash off..BAM

I use the green wheel cleaner from www.griotsgarage.com. Its safe for painted wheels, smells like bananas, and its the recommended cleaner of BBS wheels.
Its kind of pricey but I only use it on my front wheels (Z06 brake pads dust like mad)

I use Wheel Mist from Mothers. I've used a lot of different stuff, and this is the best. Spray on, let sit, and rinse off!!
Here is a link to it:

I use the same NXT car wash that's in my bucket after I wash the car, using a terry cloth towel (don't use the mit you use to wash your paint on your wheels), If you do use a spray cleaner make sure it does'nt contain acid.

After I wash my car, I use "Get Off!" glass cleaner & a general purpose microfibre towel. New towel for each wheel.
