What should I clean polished wheels with in between washings?

What kind of polished wheels? Chrome? Aluminum?
I`d imagine you couldn`t go wrong with car wash soap.
I wonder if P21S with it`s neutral pH would be safe for polished finishes?

polished aluminum with clear coat. It`s not the wash I am wondering about, but the between washing quick cleans.

In-between, so you washed the car a couple days ago, drove around for a bit, outside is still alright but the wheels are a bit dirty, like that in-between? If so, I would still get some water and a bucket of whatever you use for soap, mitts, and do it right in the driveway, unless you have water restrictions? That or try some ONR maybe?

When my wheels get dirty the whole car gets washed. ONR would be the way to go if the rest of the car really didn`t need it.
You could also use a quick detailer. Just don`t spray directly on the wheels, put it on a towel first.
Or use keep some ONR mixed with water in a bottle and use that.
