Want to hear a dirty joke?

Black MINI, white wheels....

Although I would order the same again, it sure takes care of any free time I might have.


Also, what I really want to say is thanks to Brad and all the others on this forum. Not only those who answer questions but those who ask as well. :smile:

.... and may God bless Sal Zaino....

Question: exactly how often do you clean your white wheels? I have silver wheels and have been known to clean them twice a day. I can, however, go days and the silver wheels just appear to have a patina...they don't look dirty in the strictest sense. So if one had white wheels, how much work is it in a given day, assuming you wanted them to look presentable?

With the stock pads, every day, with a cold chisel and a hammer.

Week before last I had Chad at Detroit Tuned put on EBC greens. Cut the dust in half and seems to get better as they break in. Now every other day a quick spray at the wand wash. Also a wheel brush helps as well as a shot of Z6 to finish up.

Doesnt hurt to put a good heavy coat of a high quality sealer wax (not cleaner wax) on the wheels. Take them off the car, clean them till they're blindingly bright, then wax them. The wax isnt a perfect solution but it gives the brake dust something to land on that it cant stick to so a quick rinse will take most of it off.
