Title: wheel brush
Post by: sharki786 on 21 February 2013, 20:42: i know this might have been asked like a gazillion of times :evil:
but i need to buy a brush for my wheels (bbs rx2's)#who better to ask then you guys???
i have looked at megs wheel brush but they break within a year just by the handle so going to stay away from them. my budget is £20 tops. also cleaning my calipers would be nice to but all within that price range.

I've always been a bit worried that the bristles on any brush wud be to harsh for the shadows so I've stayed away from them...I take it the one your recommending is absolutely fine?

Yeah, i've been using it on mine for the last couple of years and it seems fine but tbh, i use a mit on the face and openings anyway and the brush is for the insides.

Tis true, I've had two delivered this morning, one for the arches and one for the tyres and they're both excellent.

Post by: dubber36 on 18 March 2013, 13:27: I've never felt the need for a wheels brush. I can get my hands between the spokes of the Vancouvers, so can reach most of the way round the insides of the wheels with a mitt. It gets a bit tight by the front brake caliper, but moving the car by 1/2 a wheel turn lets me reach the bit I couldn't before.
