How does one clean these deep holes with the wheels on the car easily?

Stress the word easily?

I found that a wooden popsicle stick wrapped in a fold or two of an render'd t-shirt works great.

One can "dry clean" or add a little additive of some sort and the holes come out spiffy with no residue left behind.

Ah, life is good.

Good call Pat, I usually take the wheel off. Your way sounds easier :D

Do we have a vendor here that sells those, yet? Dennis:beer:

AutoZone has a soft (kind of like those little pipe cleaners from school; that material) brush that is hollow in the center - fits around our lug nutz and in and around that space perfectly. :) I'll see if I can find a pic...
