Cleaning (and keeping them that way) stock 07 Type-S wheels?

Just got my TLS a week ago, an 07. Already notice a lot of brake dust build up on the front wheels, making them duller and darker than the rears.

Other than cleaning these things everyday, how do you guys keep them looking shiny and new? Are there better brake pads that won't give off as much brake dust? What cleaning agents do you recommend that don't hurt the finish?

Protoboard, welcome to the Type S. I clean my wheels about every 3-4 days. When you wax your car, you can use the wax on the wheels, which will help somewhat.

There has been a lot of discussion about brake pad replacements. If you do a search, you'll find a lot of different threads.
