Is it me or the black is so hard to keep it clean as Fuck!
I washed mine twice this weekend lol, now i need to wax it. But as soon as my wheels got cleaned, shortly after they dried, they became rusty.. so unfortunate :S

Don't park it or leave it to dry with orange/oxidized rotors or you'll have dirty wheels the next time you move the car and you'll feel like all your hard work was for nothing. In order to minimize the rust after a wash, blow dry your wheels with a leaf blower once you're done then wipe them down with a towel. There will still be some rust, but it will be gone after you drive the car a few feet/go around the block. Moving the car immediately after also helps expel any hidden water in the mirrors and grills so you'll be killing 2 birds with one stone. Then go over the car again to wipe down any wet areas and you're good to go.

Thanks,

I will do it the next time for sure. Overall without waxing, it take me 1:30 to fully clean the car in a brand new condition and around 1:30 to wax it

I follow this same protocol. Instead of a leaf blower I use a handheld dryer sold by Harley Davidson and follow along with a micro towel. It's made for motorcycles but works great for cars too. It's not quite as loud either, much lighter to transport, and for it's size it's pretty damn powerful!

This thing with proper fitting & looking aftermarket wheels would break IG.

Isn't it an M performance part from the competition release?

It looks the business.
