I use lots of stuff depending on how dirty.
Simple Green with light dirt.
Diesel fuel will remove road oil and asphalt chips. Takes a bit of soaking and rubbing. Diesel will also remove boot marks from chrome or stainless exhaust pipes.
Best of all is Mother's Mag and aluminum polish. It makes no sense that mag or aluminum polish would be needed as the wheels are coated. If you use brake cleaner and it sits on the wheel too long you will find out how much coating is on the wheels! It will remove it.
Believe it or not, Mothers mag polish works removing things you would not usually try it on. Bugs that have been on my front fairing for many miles were removed with mothers mag polish.
