    By hand with a sponge and soapy water. Degreaser if they are really dirty.

    Its a pain in the ass, but its part of the lifestyle we all signed up for.

          Check out Griot's garage. They have all kinds of wheel brushes that would work well for weaves I think. I couldn't stand cleaning mine, BMW wheel cleaner did do wonders when I had them. Just spray it on, let it sit for a little bit, scrub if needed, then spray off.

          Sold.......again.
