The smartest thing to do is to seal the wheels with a synthetic sealant, especially new wheels, before they start to pit. Once you get them clean, seal them. I've tried a bunch of different wheel glazes/waxes, but they don't last very long. I've been using DG #105 with outstanding results. All I use to clean my wheels is a sponge w/ soap and water. No need for harsh chemicals with a sealant. My rims are a year old and look like they just rolled off the showroom floor. Plus with using just a sponge,(not the one you use to wash the truck) you will avoid scratching the clearcoat on the wheels.
