I dont bother with specific wheel sealants as tbh they arent necessary. I use this....

http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/sealan.../prod_589.html

Its an awesome sealant that can be used on all surfaces.......its high temperature so can be used on wheels and in the engine bay. Works on bare metals so good on aluminium cam covers etc etc and gives very good protection on paintwork.

Its also a really big tin that will last you ages.
