That's what I do on my personal truck! Every time I rotate the tires (at 7,000 mile intervals) I thoroughly clean and wax the barrels while they're off the vehicle. In between tire rotations I just clean the barrels on the vehicle with a wheel brush or by simply wiping.

Re: Wheel techniqe
I could certainly see doing it during tire rotation, good idea. But taking the wheels off every car wash time to clean barrels? ah, hell naw. I aint that dedicated.

Something like a Speed Master Wheel Brush or the Speed Master 'wooly' brush kit will allow you access the barrels without removing the wheel. I clean the barrels on my truck once ever month or so, and it makes them really look clean.

You get a new Caddy yet? That Caddy might have just saved your life.
Yes, kept emailing Jason about it. It just happened an hour ago.
