Default Wheel cleaning question

I'm sure OC Ben has the answer for this. I have used a cone-shaped bristle brush to clean my 18" turbo twists while they're on the car. The brush gets under the rotor and reaches the width of the wheel for good cleaning without scratching. I need a new one and can't remember what kind it is or where I got it. Help please! Thanks.

I bought my wheel brush to clean the inside of the wheels at Walmart.

I'm just concerned about scratching the painted wheel. I know that Meguiar's used to make a good one, but it seems to be discontinued. Anyone have experience with Griot's?

Phil, the $2.99 brush I use is very very soft and I have not scratch my wheels. Being in Florida I have to wash the car twice a week.

Go to www.griotsgarage.com they have way to many choices. It's like the menu at Cheesecake Factory.
