Stu Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Solutions... Stop braking. Stop braking so hard. Buy really crappy pads that don't do much (EBC). Park the car up. Clean wheels daily. Paint wheels black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiamGTR Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 (edited) Basically, there isn't much you can do (realistically) Edited July 22, 2009 by LiamGTR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olly_mk6 Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 There is spray that can be bought from Halfords but it wont ever stop it, just lessen it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mykez69 Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 you can wax them after cleaning them to make the cleaning process easier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiamGTR Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 (edited) ^^^ I can recommend that, I now wax my wheels after hearing somebody else do it, and they come out like new with just some water and a sponge not even a 2 min job.

MikeyRS Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Yeh as above, buy performance pads that reduce amount of dust produced Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
