You need good pads...for instance the HPS dust far less the stock pads..Ask around other will say the same...then try some of the ideas above to clean your wheels. Your going to need to ask about track pads and dusting..Most of the better road pads dont dust nearly as much as stock..FYI

Why is everyone telling him how to get brake dust off his rims? He wants to know how to keep them from getting dusty in the first place. Getting brake dust off isn't really a mystery, keeping it off is the hard part and the topic of the post.
I hear there’s a coating you can have put on the rims to keep brake dust from sticking to them. I came across this thread while trying to find out more about it.

magic...
brake dust sticks to everything. Hell it's probably got a decent static charge sense it's been rubbing on metal right before it became airborne.
If you want less dust go with a less dusty pad as mentioned.
If you want it to be easier to clean off use wax, it works.
If you want to use a product to clean it off they work too mostly.
If you want to make the dust avoid the spokes... call harry potter.

WheelWax hasn't shown itself as a highly durable product. There are a few good options for treating wheels. I prefer using FK1 1000P, a high-temperature sealant that can be found by scrolling down this page. If there's a Harbor Freight store around, Collonite 476S is another good choice. Both of these products last a long time and look great on paint, as well. Really, the OP's question would have generated better info if it were posted on the detailing forum.
