Get rid of them, I'd rather ride than fart around cleaning those damb things. I couldnt wait for mine to get worn down enough to justify getting a new set. When I first bought the bike I thought they were real cool, old school. After a month or so, PITA.

Just my opinion.

Wesleys on a rag was what I used, it did a good job.

+1 on the Wesleys. Spray them down and use a tire brush. Cleans them right up
+1 on the Westleys, but don't let it sit too long and dry ont he aluminum wheels.. wash it and slush it off quickly.

Liquid dish soap and an old Scotchbrite dish sponge. Once a month sponge rims and scotchbrite WWW. 40 minutes for both front and back and abeer. Well worth the time for all three.
