Don't use wget at all. Use rsync instead, from a mirror that supports it.
Here is what I use (in a nightly cron):
# cd /myrepo
# rsync -rltHvz --delete rsync://rsync.mirrorservice.org/mirror.centos.org/6/os/i386/ centos6/os/i386/
# rsync -rltHvz --delete rsync://rsync.mirrorservice.org/mirror.centos.org/6/updates/i386/ centos6/updates/i386/
# rsync -rltHvz --delete rsync://rsync.mirrorservice.org/mirror.centos.org/6/os/x86_64/ centos6/os/x86_64/
# rsync -rltHvz --delete rsync://rsync.mirrorservice.org/mirror.centos.org/6/updates/x86_64/ centos6/updates/x86_64/
Omit the ones you don't want.
