Spray On/Wipe Off Wheel Cleaner?
Maybe a dumb question, but is there such product that can be sprayed on any type of wheel and can be wiped off without rinsing? Similar to a spray detailer? Or could that be used?

Try Meguiars Wheel Detailer. I assume you are looking for something for quick clean ups...

Ooops sorry about that. The Poorboy's World Spray and Wipe would be the closest thing I can think of. This spray is meant to safely lift contaminants on the surface without the addition of water. It's not an ultra strong cleaner but it should help with loose particles.

I agree with Greg. I wouldn't use Megs Wheel Detailer on paint. If you get Poorboys Spray and Wipe you can clean your wheels and your finish together. You get more bang for your buck.
Spray and Wipe is one of my favorite products. Its all I use when after removing and putting on the car cover on my 350Z.

Spend your money on a decent quick deatiler. The pricing is not exorbinant.

Would I rather have a specific quick detailer, sure, but if you run out and need something to use, this works rather well. A quick detailer may smell better and have more slickness due to carnauba and other additives, but otherwise I really don't see a difference.
For showroom quality, I'd stick to a QD, but for a typical user, even one with discerning tastes, diluted car wash soap will work rather well to remove water spots after a wash or as the OP was asking, on wheels for a quick touch up.

After washing your car, before you spray any detailer on the rim, make sure you drive the car around the block a few times to get all the water off the wheels. You don't want to quick detail the wheels and then drive off for the day and have all that excess water running off on your clean wheels and leave nasty water spots.

I second P21S or maybe the Chemical Guys Citrus Wheel Cleaner. I already have some Volks ruined by the car wash guys using their cleaning solution on them. If you truly care about your wheels take the time to treat them as well as your paint with a good cleaner AND sealant. Greg is awesome at detailedimage.com
