Wow, niiiice!

How do you keep your wheels so clean? My Brembo brakes cover the wheels in brake dust within 2 days of cleaning...

No way, I have a life. And I refuse to be a slave to brake dust on principle. If anything I'll switch to charcoal wheels.

Well, you must use your brakes a lot harder than I do, I don't get that much dust on mine.

A better option than changing wheels, is to change pads, to something that doesn't dust as much.

You know, I actually don't brake that hard at all. I usually keep it in gear and bleed quite a bit of speed with engine braking. But I do get a lot of dust. I have the Track Pack, which is supposed to have Boss friction material, so perhaps that explains it.

But you have a good point, switching to ceramic pads would help. I'll probably go that route once I wear out the OE pads.

You might want to consider Armour All Wheel Protectant:

Your car looks awesome in these pictures. Remarkably clean!

It really needs a drop though IMO

Thanks everyone! For the wheels, they do get cleaned quite often. She doesn't get driven as much as I would like so that helps a little.
And for the drop that is definitely going to happen. Gonna collect some parts this winter and install them when she gets out of hibernation.

The track pack/boss/LS has the same pads as the brembo brake option cars.
