collinite 845, one of the most durable synthetic waxes out there, should work well for wheels.

+1 bajillion

But I hate that I have so much of it and don't want to use it. I've found that it's best to go the thinner is better route.

845 on the wheels...I may just have to go with that!

You can probably skip the 601..the 105 should be sufficient (unless you're doing more than 1 coat). I also use CG JS109 which works well on wheels.

Swissvax Autobahn is my prefered wheelwax.

Easy on easy off, and stuff dont seems to stick to the wheels so its easy to wash afters...
