How do you wash Wheels / rims with ONR?
Any tips on how to wash Wheels & and Tires using ONR and has no access to a hose?
I tried to wash it with just ONR and those brake dust won't go off. Do I need to use Iron X before I use ONR on the wheels? And how do you rinse it off since I have no access to hose & water?

That's what I did, but it won't remove all the brake dust. I guess I will need a Wheel Cleaner.
Just not sure which one to buy, there's too many of them out there. I was thinking getting the AMMO Plum wheel cleaner , but they take too long to ship. Last items I bought from Ammo took over a week to get to me.

How often are you cleaning your wheels? My ISF puts off a lot of brake dust, but cleaning the wheels every 1-2 weeks and it wipes away easily with rinseless wash or just soap and water. If you need a wheel cleaner for routine maintenance then you're not cleaning often enough.

I clean my wheels & car every week. Yea you're right, the brake dust are pretty easy to come off, I also coated my wheels with CQ Finest.
But I just don't want my 2 front wheels to look like matte black and dirty so easy. Is there another solution for this? Is something wrong with my 200T? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Front wheels always have more brake dust... they provide the majority of the stopping power. It is normal for most higher end cars to have higher dusting pads, however there are always lower dusting options available. Ask around in your vehicle forum for low dusting pad recommendations.
The large performance brakes on the ISF make it so that just one trip in my car and my front wheels are dirty, but it is what it is.
The solution is to just clean the wheels more frequently and/or get low dusting pads. Nothing wrong. It is normal.

Once my OEM's wear out, there are some project my pads that many ISF owners swear by for greatly reducing dust and great bite. Check with some of our forum sponsors who sell braking components if you can't find any help from other vehicle owners in your forum.

Do you track your car? If not, I wouldn't worry about performance trade-offs. There are many aftermarket pads that work just as well as the OEM pads around the city. Ceramic pads will dust just as much as semi-metallic. The difference is the dust is lighter in color so it's less noticeable.

So I def think they're the same ones.
Yea I bought some Double Thick Edgeless Towels from DI, so far they're really good. But if the ones from the Rag Company is better, than I'll jump the ship.
