Default strong wheel cleaner

I am looking to try a really strong wheel cleaner for the tough, tough job that occasionally comes along. I have been using ARO and 303 cleaner full strength but was wondering if either DP or P21 gel is better?

Poorboys Spray and Rinse comes to mind here. Heard it's pretty damn strong!

I like my P21S Wheel Gel. Expensive, but great. If you have the time, let that stuff sit for 30 minutes to 2 hours and you'll be amazed.

I think Meguiar's Wheel Brightener will give PB's a good run for their money. I think it is cheaper and more effective. The both are only safe on certain wheels, but I think the Meguiar's on is safer than PB's...but maybe that is the Meguiar's fan boy inside of me talking.

I haven't used Poorboys Spray and Rinse but that's why I purchased Meguiar's Wheel Brightener. For those bad, dirty, neglected rims. I haven't used it just yet but next vehicle I get that is worthy of the Meguiar's Wheel Brightener I will definetly use it

I personaly am I big fan of P21S Wheel Gel, it's safe and it gets the job done right

I look forward to see what others will suggest.

Poorboy's Spray and Rinse is the strongest, but it cannot be used on all wheels. Be sure to follow per label instructions.

I would not suggest DP wheel gel. It may work only SLIGHTLY better then ARO, still not as strong as I had hoped. And it also isnt very gel like at all, it barely stuck any better then any other wheel cleaner ive used.
