After about 50 miles or so the brake dust builds up and the wheels need cleaning. Ok no problem. But it seems like after I get started I notice a little road dust or whatever on the car. Before you know it the whole car gets a bath. Cleanest car I've ever owned.

Yeah, but every other day seems a bit excessive to me, if you know what I mean; LOL!

I clean the break dust off my wheels almost every day... and I usually go over it with a Cali Duster everyday too.. Obsessive. Yes.

I do the same about every other day. As long as it hasn't rained the dust just wipes off our wheel finish easily. If the dust gets wet, thats another story.

You can get a California Duster from any local mart that sells auto cleaning supplies. My local KMart even sells it. But those are usually intended to remove dust from the body of your car (not the gross brake dust/grime).
Like jwg35c, I always wanna clean the wheels, and then that turns into a whole car wash.
If I may make a wheel cleaning suggestion:
During a car wash you can clean the rims and the sidewall of the tires with Eagle One A2Z All Wheel & Tire Cleaner. Before washing the car, just spray the A2Z All Wheel & Tire Cleaner on the whole wheel (rim and tire sidewall), let it sit for 10-15 seconds, then rinse the stuff completely away and you will have a perfectly cleaned wheel with minimal effort.
