    Same here.

    I actually use baby shampoo to make my wash water. I wash the truck first (two bucket method) and then the leftover soapy water gets used on the wheels.

    I keep my wheels well waxed and that helps the brake dust from sticking so much.

    purple power and toothbrush for the wheels, metal polish for the lug nuts... you gotta polish your nuts. girls like shiny nuts.

    Am I the only one who goes with a sponge and scrubs every nook on the wheel? And I wash the truck every week, so small kine time consuming. lol

    For the tires I use a brush with the soapy leftover water after I wash the truck.
