...I am a clean freak, especially when it comes to my 9-5. I have a 2003 Aero as well and initially had the 10-spokes. I've since switched them out for the 2004 factory Aero 5-spokes, which are MUCH easier to keep clean. With that said, when I first got the car, I was washing it at least once a week, and I was wiping the brake dust off my wheels with a microfiber towel twice a day; yes that's right twice a day. It was irritating to no end, especially with the 10-spokes which are hard to keep clean anyway. When I swapped for the new wheels, I didn't want to ruin them with all that dust, so I picked up a full set, front and rear, of the Akebono Euro pads. They are amazing. I DO NOT WIPE WHEELS ANYMORE. All it takes now is the spray off once a week and a quick polish and I'm done. They produce virtually no dust, trust me. Discard the Kleen wheels idea, get the Akebonos, and don't look back. Cheers.
