The tires fill the wheel wells fairly well on my ES350 and makes it very difficult to clean the inside of the wheel wells. Has anyone found a slim but strong brush that will reach? Front wheels can be turned in and out for more room, but the rears are very tight. Thanks

Having the rotten weather we have here in PA each winter, salt, gravel laid upon the roads, I make it a practice to use a strong stream of water to cleanse the interior wheel wells. I haven't found a brush that would do as well as the water.

This may be more effort than you want,but how about placing a jack under
the car ,near the rear wheel, and lifting the frame to the point where the wheel / tire
is just about to daylight. .That should increase the rear wheel clearance enough
to get into there and do a good job of cleaning!

A good suggestion. Sound like it would work well. If you live in NJ you have the same issues that we do across the Delaware.

I'd suggest giving the Speed Master Wheel brush a look. I have one and LOVE it for my wheels! Great for getting inside the wheels without having to take them off and the tip has a rubber protector on it to prevent accidental scrapes/scuffs when you inevitably/accidentally ram it into the spokes. While I've never tried it, I would imagine you could use it for the wheel wells too. Arguably they're not on the cheap side which is why I suggest giving it a thorough look/review first but again, I have and love mine and would replace it tomorrow if I had to. Just my .02. Good luck.

Get the car on jack stands and get the wheels completely off so you can access the wheel wells.

You can use car soap/water, detailing brushes and even a steam cleaning machine.
