Wheel Wax for the win
My dad is in town and he helped me wheel wax my rims. I also waxed the Brembos since they faded badly on my VIII. Hopefully this will help protect them.

This stuff is nice, it really repels brake dust. Here are a couple of crappy pics.

I definatly have to do that to my wheels. They dont stay clean for long and it takes forever to get all that brake dust off even with a wheel cleaner while washing them by hand with car wash soap.

Poorboy's make some decent wheel wax. Don't be putting normal wax on there guys as it might break down with the heat. To be honest, brake dust is still a ***** wheel wax or not.

You are definitely right, but its much easier to clean the first 3 months or so after its put on the wheels.

Agreed.

I have wheel wax and PB's wheel sealant, but for longevities sake I'm gonna try Zaino on my Volks. White wheels+brakedust=hell.
