But what's the commonality here......... low/no dust pads!!! And THAT is the only way to go. After a weekend on track with the stock pads my
rear wheels were almost black so you can imagine how bad my front wheels were. With the Posi-Quiets on all four corners the wheels were only lightly dirty after a full weeekend on track - and stopping power was still awesome. Just ask the guy in the Porsche 911 who couldn't stop as quickly as I could and almost rear ended me!
So swap out your brake pads and then pick up some Meguiar's Quik Wheel Detailer and some microfiber towels. Spray the wheels down every couple of days and wipe dry with the microfibers and you'll have clean, shiny wheels all the time. A coat of any decent wax or, preferably, synthetic sealant is a great idea too.
