I use the P21S gel the detailers use here
it's about the same money and works well with moderate scrubbing with the sponge
but always looking for a better product with less elbow grease
thx

But on really dirty areas it makes almost a thick sludge, a little scrubbing and it's done, just wash it off and the wheels are clean 
On less dirty areas, you just need to shoot everything off with a pressure washer BTW, Sonax is a customer of my Dad's refinery in Germany which is kinda cool

Tried this one today and have to say it did an awesome job. Smells the same as the BMW product but I got the impression that Sonax did a slightly better job and at a fraction of the cost. My local spare parts store had a special offer so I got the +50% bottle for 12 bucks! Needless to say I stocked up on a bunch

Pyiu: Is this cleaner safe for powdercoat? I do not have any clearcoat on my wheels, and the OP does not mention that it is safe for powder.
Thanks for clarifying.
