Unfortunately, I don't believe AutoZone or Advance Auto Parts carry this item. I ordered a jug of this product from detailerdomain. Great stuff!

get some good wheel cleaner - like Sonax Full Effect, make sure you get some good wheel brushes, since the brake dust appears to be caked on you may need to repeat.

I'm sure for $9000 a local detailer will keep those wheels nice and clean for you, year round.

I dont really get the logic by BMW. My first car was 328i. I had it for 1.5months. I literally never clean the wheels and the car, and that car made no noise at all. However, the brakes from M5 is bugging so much ,even if I clean the wheels thoroughly.

Sorry to dig up an old post but is this even true? When I was in the Navy, we used nitrogen in the tires to prevent inflation issues due to the air temp at ground level opposed to low temperature while flying. I would guess that nitrogen in car tires helps keep the same temperature after the tires have warmed up from use and also helps losing pressure when you have cold mornings. So in general, there is benefit and it's not "useless" in cars. |
