    Next week, I'll be looking at a 360 with the 3 piece modular rims. It would seem to me that these would be very difficult to clean. Any thoughts?

    If you're interested in cleaning the wheel's barrel or its other hard to reach areas, this is a great brush... http://www.autogeek.net/ezdebrfca.html

    I have one and it works well (it's not ideal for the wheel's fascia, though). Also, the metal shaft is covered so it won't scratch.

    I have the factory 3 piece modular wheels on my 360 spider -- they look great and they are easy to clean.

    I use a soft bristle brush like those above and it takes < 1 min per wheel when washing the car.

    3 piece rims are tough to seal up. 2 piece rims are better.
