I'm gonna try the new foam thingies from Phil...

Down side I've heard with the EZ brush is you get splattered with crap when you pull it out from the wheel...

I've never used one...

I got a chance to use mine for the first time the other day and really liked how it got in behind the spokes of the rim. I would recomend it...

this is a good product... I think the best wheel brush though is the one NICA has and everyone else that had got it from vxmarc to paul dalton.. the wool brush.. I hope they bring back that brush or someone make the same close to it..

The EZ detail brush is nice but it does make a ton of splatter. Wear a white t-shirt and you come away looking like a dalmation. My new favorite method of cleaning wheels can be seen here:

Wheel Stick the 411

These things simply rock! I have 2 of them.
