Np, it's dilutable stuff, 1/10 and cleans pretty good or just make it stronger.
I use it in 1/10 and blast off with pressure washer then add a bit more and agitate with brush and it clean.

After you get on top of them and they're clean, apply a wax or sealant and then just use regular car shampoo in future. Bilberry or similar will reduce the longevity of such coatings but you really won't need anything aggressive once they're sealed.

Cleaning wheels goes from the "Ugh" bit of washing your car to a quick rub over with a spare mitt.
