Default Chrome wheels

Do any of you clean the inside (other side of spokes) on your chrome wheels?

Once in the spring, once in the fall when I rotate the tires I will clean the crap out of them before I reinstal

yes, many detailing brushes and wheel cleaners makes it much easier to clean the barrel

I do what I can from the outside using brushes and such but once-a-year, each is pulled and detailed (complete with tar remover and waxed) then rotated if needed.
The detailing and waxing really helps to keep 'stuff' from sticking, making cleaning from the outside much easier....

I clean them regularly. Looks better and easier than trying to clean them just once or twice a year.

I clean the barrels of my non chrome wheels everytime I wash the truck. I clean the backside of the spokes thoroughly when I rotate tires, but have a wheel brush I bent on an angle to clean them during my normal wash. I ceramic coated them so its easy to clean them.
