The Problem with White Wheels
The car has become a daily hack doing 250miles a week so it gets a little mucky, so before the hose-pipe ban kicks in...
Before
And after a little clean...

Hi Jon that's why we are went with Hyper Black colour(off course with help from MSOC tyre supplier Mags) on our alloys,keep them clean is just pain,yes on Hyper Black brake dust is seen'd but not that much as on white and really depends on pads(we are running the DS2500 and they're dusty)

Saw you coming through Denham under the railway bridge a few weeks back, that colours unmistakable
My wheels are white too, a right pain in the posterior to keep clean need to try some of that smartguard / g3 type paint treatment on them and see if that will make them easier to rinse off without the inner rim staying filthy? There always a scummy rim behind the spokes otherwise, probably the same with yours
