Just make sure wheels spokes are far  enough apart that you get your hands around them to clean.
I find the M3 wheels on our BMW are a pain to clean since I cannot get my hands around the spokes to clean

Many of the available BMW wheels are a pain to clean, eg. my 19" multi-spoke ones for the summer.

However, BMW has some of the nicest-looking OEM wheels today.  :)

Agree the OZs look great on the GTI.

Congrats on the purchase! Finding one without a sunroof from stock may have been an issue.

Happy waiting! :bounce:
