I would advise against using any kind of chemical on 2k + wheels.

I use soap and water to clean my GTC's. The GTC's are anodized so you have to be very careful with them. It they need a substaintial cleanup after getting them clean. Then I protect them with an All In One polish (Klasse AIO, Poli Seal, etc). I then seal them up with Zaino Clear Seal or Poorboys Wheel Sealant.

I have never used a wheel cleaner on them. If I had to it would be P21S.

I have always had nothing but good and safe results with
P21S Wheel Cleaner Gel. I have recently become addicted to Chemical Guy's stuff and will be moving on to CG Citrus Cleaner. George was great about recommending the line to me and Natty's Wheel Wax. After having my Volks ruined, I have learned that an ouce of prevention is soo much cheaper than a pound of cure.

I have also used FMJ as a sealant, both the FMJ and Wax give a little gloss and shine to the lip.

for volks i would spend the money and pick up some swissvax, autobahn. its a very high in wheel wax that protects and gives it a very high shine. but it is a little expensive for the amout you get but well worth it. if your not looking to send that kind of money you could always buy some wheel wax. or just put a nice coat of wax on the wheels to protect them and shine them up. when cleaning Never you a wheel based cleaner with acid in them though.
