    You already have a brush for the outside flat surfaces so I'm thinking you're looking for longer bristles to get into the deeper parts of the wheel. Longer bristles might not be the answer. Longer bristles mean more flexibility and therefore less efficient cleaning. Sort of defeating the purpose.
    Why not try a set of wheel woolies? Small, medium, large, buy all or just the ones you want and your deep bits will stay clean as a whistle. Lots of companies sell them, including the forum sponsor, Autogeek. I love my set.

    I like the Chemical Guys Gerbil Wheel and Rim Brush.

    Works great on my style 42s. The brushes that you linked don't work very well on the 42s. Really depends on your wheels. Can you post a picture?

    I use either a regular sponge (gasp) or soft paint brush on the rim and center portion of the wheel while using the gerbil between the spokes.

    I use the Speed Master brush. Works well and you can get the wheel barrels with it. Mine is two years old and shows no signs of wear .

    Gotta agree with JohnZ3MC, Wheel woolies work very well.

    Agreed to the wheel woolies. Great for everything, not just wheels.
