I use chemical guys rim guard. Works well, my wheels clean up nice. My buddy uses it on his Chrome 24s and that's where you notice it. It shines them up really nice. My wheels are black so you don't really notice a diffrence other then the dept of the black.

I've had 3 sets of Method wheels. I loved the look but their finish has a lot left to be desired. Like FX4362 said, DO NOT allow water mixed with all the road crap sit on the wheels or it will ruin the finish.
I used C845 on all my wheels which helps cleaning dirt and brake dust but the best way to keep your methods looking new is to wash them often and don't allow standing water to set in the lip.
If I ever buy another set of Methods I'll have them powder coated first.

Another vote for Collinite on the wheels, makes it soooo much easier to clean. I did mine before the winter and they look great. Will be doing it again in the spring unless I decide to pull the trigger on new wheels, which I'd also be waxing!

Just hit my FX 20's with Colinite. It does indeed make them easier to clean.
Let the wax sit on the wheels overnight before buffing it out. This applies to anything that gets waxed. The longer you leave it on the better it will work and longer it will last.
