I've found that even if the rest of a car is spotless, dirty wheels can break the entire look.   That said, is there a better/quicker/easier way of keeping wheels in tip-top shape without me getting down on my hands/knees and taking a towel and some mag/chrome polish to them?  I've heard that you can use a powerball on it, but I'm not sure how that'd work.  Tips?

And while I'm at it, how many of you clean deep inside the wheel? I tend to only clean off the visible portion...

if you have polished wheels then you would definatley benefit from a powerball.  they work great with some aluminum polish.  and i always wash the inside of my rim everytime i wash the car.  and everytime i take off the wheels to rotate them, i use a powerball and some polish to clean them up really well.  but you should be able to polish the wheel up nice and shiny, and then put on a coat of wax or some of justins wheel seal and it should keep its shine longer.
