Default Jet black wheel care advice

Just as the title says! Accepting delivery this week and want to make sure they're properly cleaning the rims. What special care should I take? Special rags/cleaning agents?

Thanks!

There are different blacks for Porsche wheels.
I have the Gloss Black.
The finish is so smooth that all you require is a set of Wheel Woolies, sponge and Auto Wash(Turtle for me).
dirt just glides off.-Richard

Depending on the black finish you ordered, I'd recommend a coat of Optimum Gloss Coat. You can buy a 10mm syringe from Phil at Detailers Domain. About $60. Just enough for 4 wheels, and 4 calipers. Take the wheels off the car. Then all you'll ever need to do is just wash your wheels with warm soapy water. Wheel cleaners are not required. Blow dry with a Master Blaster. I do the OGC every year pror to winter hibernation.

A lower tech solution is RejeX Wax. Very good for wheels, but the OGC is better.
