Default Good stock wheel cleaner?

I have 2003 stock AP1 rims which have ground in brake dust, what is a good (safe) cleaner to use on these? Thanks

p21s makes the best, imo...
i always start with car shampoo and a good brush, then go to p21s if i have to- usually the shampoo gets it

Agreed with wanabe. Use just car soap and water to get the loose stuff off. P21S is too expensive to use in that manner. Then if you still have really bad dirt/brake dust stuck on there use the P21S. Be sure to protect with a quality wheel wax. I tried that step for the first time this weekend and was really impressed with the results.

1Z Blitz diluted 5:1. And waxing your wheels is good also.
