One spoke at a time, counting one to ten, because you will immediately and invariably forget where you started.
Then one flat at a time, two corners each. Again, counting. (You'll see what I mean when it happens.)
Then one inside corner at a time, times ten.
Then you jam your big meaty hand inside the spokes and clean a small section of the inner lip, trying to reach your fingers all the way to the back edge. Not easy, Kenny. Alas, times 10 again.
Then you try and clean the caliper, but for sure a spoke will be in the way, and you weigh how badly you want to deal with it, ignore it, or move the car for access.
Finally, you wipe down the center and the lug nuts, feeling foolish how easy that part was.
And when you rinse them off, you have to wait for things to settle and rinse again, because of the dirt that collects in the lip when rinsing... but you already know that with your CV3s.
This whole dance, times four. I love my rims, man, but after a while this gets old. I can't overstate how much it helps when cleaning to have your wheels properly waxed. And of course, it's immeasurably more easy to wax them when off the car.
Gook luck. The rears are easier, and I suspect the 20's are easier than my 19's.
