Re: wheelwax
it is very good for rims and metal, gives it superb shine and smoothness. its like normal wax where u apply on ur rims after washing. wipes off with any chamois. The texture after wiping off is smooth and waxy. However rather than preventing dust from settling, i feel that it attracts brake dust even more. because of the waxy slightly sticky surface, brake dust tends to get stuck on the rims over a shorter period of time. However, it does provide a layer of protection which makes ur next wash easier.
Up to you how often you wanna wax. becoz iam on radial spokes, its a bitch to wax and wipe it off. just doing it on all four rims can take as much time as washing the entire car. I usually do it once a mth. you can do it every week if you have less spokes on ur rims
IMO, nothing beats a good wash of the rims and towel dry it with nothing applied to it. seems to attarct least brake dust.

Re: wheelwax
Mine are 159s. I use Sonax and the autoglym wheel brush, but am often swayed into taking the car to SPC for someone else to do the back breaking work! Might be tempted to switch when the tires are up for renewal, though I think the design is quite nice.

Re: wheelwax
sonax has 2 products - the rim cleaner and the rim protector.
rim cleaner is a spray on, let it sit, the rinse off detergent. not too effective unless you are the fanatic (like wilman2772) who washes your rims every other day. plus the stock brake pads give off a lot of dust, so IMO, don't waste money - just use car shampoo and a bit of plain ol' scrubbing.
rim protector does work. it's a aerosol spray that leaves a layer of transparent laquer / varnish on the rims once it dries. makes the brake dust much easier to wash off...
