Wheel Protector

So I am currently looking at picking up an effective wheel protector for my wheels and was wondering if anyone can recommend one?

I am looking at this currently

Obviously I'd like to avoid spending money on a useless product so any advice would be appreciated.

I use it and it works very well. It's only suitable for light coloured wheels and Autoexpress.co.uk reckon the Wonder Wheels equivalent is at least as good and a lot cheaper.

Have a look on www.detailingworld.co.uk

Gtechniq C5 is well recommended, but is best applied to wheels when they have been fully decontaminated. Whilst expensive lasts well, from what I've read.
