There is no secret man. most pics you see are right after someone has cleaned them, then take pics. My ITR rims were CW, but i had them repainted to GM and the clear coat that was used helped alot. Before with the CW.. they were "stained". I would suggest repainting them with a good layer of clear coat, or powder coating them becase it's easier to clean them after they've been painted.

I read somewhere that if wax the rims like you would wax your car the dirt and grime has a harder time sticking to it, and it makes any that does stick on easier to clean off. I tried it once, and it seemed to work...but I don't know, I could have just been imagining it. I'd give it a try though, see if it helps.

nsxtasy, do you recomend that wheel wax or were you simply posting to show that there is a such thing? Just wondering if anyone has a few opinions on it

The latter. I haven't tried it. I think you're basically screwed when you have white wheels; they'll never look really clean except when they're new, or when you really scrub at them (and then five miles later, they'll look dirty again)...
