Best technique/products for restoring chrome wheels back to new

My wheels are looking worse for wear...and it's bothering me. My front ones have gotten to the point that they're starting to look like polished lip rims //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif No amount of elbow grease will remove the crap that's on them...so apparently it's going to take more than soap and a sponge to clean them off.

What have you all used to clean wheels that won't come clean any other way? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

First spray the wheel down with some hot water and spray some Meguiars all wheel cleaner on them(comes in a clear purple spray bottle), follow up with lots of hot water, soap, and elbow grease. Once they are dry, find a nice chrome polish that you like and apply a coat on them. I use Mothers Chrome Polish and it works great!
