To clean your wheels? Forget BMW brands.. get Sonax Full Effect wheel cleaner best product I've used hands down and cleans the wheels very well.

No it doesn't. I know alot of professional details have used the Sonax wheel cleaner.

Spray it on (green color) then it will clean all the dirt (turns purple) and just use a small brush to clean the inner wheels and rinse. Wear some gloves though this thing is strong.

As mentioned, Sonax is great. Another excellent wheel cleaner to consider is P21S Gel (IIRC, this might actually be what is in the BMW labeled cleaner).
