I use that Honda spray on cleaning compound for that. I spray it on the rim and wipe it with a rag and it comes right off! That stuff is great, it cleans everything including road grime with little to no effort. Its cheap and 1 can has lasted me like 4 months. Should be able to get it at your local Honda store.

Pro Honda makes a chain lube that leaves No residue so nothing to sling all over the effin place !!! Good for "O" ring chains!! I hate chain wax too pain in the ash to clean off!!! And the Honda spray wax is def the mack daddy!!!!

I just used some WD-40 and a terrycloth rag. Took a few years of grime off from the last owner, only took me 5-10 minutes per wheel. I don't have a bikestand so it is a PITA to clean around the chain and the front fork. Then i used some spray detailer to give it a good shine that will help repel further grime.

Wd40, just be careful not to spray over the tires.
