got an 04 rsx. Heres the thing, for some reason brake dust likes to gather on my front wheels pretty bad. i dont know if its just cause how the stock color of the wheel is light so it stands out more or what.... but let me know what yall think and whats the best product to clean it and keep it from stickin to the wheels. Thanks

I've noticed on my girls base RSX that brake dust seems to like the wheels. 8)

Is it just me or do all the OE Acura cars do that? The new ones at least.

The worst cars BY FAR are BMW's and brake dust. DAMN I cant tell you the countless black rims ive seen on M3's and X5's

Sorry, but I wouldn't let it do that on a M3, but hey...it's weird how the inner part of the wheels are made. A lot different that mine. But yet again, I've never had OE wheels.

Only way I know of preventing brake dust is.....Don't drive/use the brakes :-/

its a PITA, but I make sure to scrub/wipe down my rims at least once a week if not more

they sell a spray that you coat your wheels with and it wont let the brake dust gather on there. forget the name but it exists

Yea, its basically a wheel wax I think. All the auto parts stores have them, their is at least 6-7 different ones to choose from too.
