Washed the car yesterday. I previously washed the car 2 weeks prior however I didn't agitate the wheels then. I did a full touchless wash since the car was just dusty and only sprayed the wheels with wheel cleaner and rinsed them off with PW. Last time I actually agitated the wheels was a month ago.

Pics before cleaning showing that the wheels don't look THAT bad. Followed by PW rinse only and then after full cleaning.

You can see that the wheels get pretty well cleaned with just a simple rinse.

These pads are soooo worth it.

The 2000’s have a graphite black dust, so it won’t show up a lot on wheels like yours and it does rinse off easily. On all silver wheels, it can start to pile up after 2-3 weeks. It only gets grimy then if you end up driving through rain.

Do you have pics of wheels after they dried off?

Oh of course. There's still dust. But 1. It's gray/black and not orange/brown like the stock pads and 2. it rinses off WAY easier (which means the rain rinses it off too) and 3. It's easier to clean.

As good if not better.

Keep in mind, brake "feel" on this car is 100% computer generated as the car is brake by wire. Performance, of course, is down to the pad and the tires.

In your case, I would try doing a full bedding procedure. Certainly could help.

I’ve got is2000s and they have excellent cold / initial bite. Same or better than stock. Impressed.
