Why use anything but car soap to clean wheels? All those cleaners are a paradox... once you start using them, you have to keep using them because they keep stripping off any kind of protectant, necessitating the use of the same harsh cleaners. The clearcoat on the wheels degrades over time, requiring more and more cleaner and elbow grease to clean. I found an easy way to keep the wheels clean without using harsh cleaners. I clean with only soap, and use a quick detailer on the wheels after each cleaning. This applies a light coat of wax with very little effort or time. Then the brake dust will always wash off with the mild soap. You can even spray the quick detailer or a spray wax while the wheels are still wet and just dry them off.
