    Yeah bad choice - but ArmorAll does make a really cool brake dust repellent for your wheels. I hate ArmorAll products, but this stuff works very well - and I'm certain you'll love it! I use it on all my cars, just put on my 430 this weekend, it's very good.

    Either way, damn man - change the wheels to polished, they'll look 100x better anyways.
