I don't do anything extreme. When I wash the car I do the wheels first and use a separate micro-fiber wash mitt. I never use the same mitt for the car. Then I empty the bucket and use fresh for the car. Once done I use Adams detail spray on the car and wheels. Once a month I use Zymol cleaner wax on them.

You can't really keep them clean, other than never driving after you wash. A 1/4 mile drive to the store at the corner puts dust all over mine.

True. Anything black is impossible to keep clean.
