Default Favorite tire black product?

Well, I've only been with my new 911 for a couple of weeks now, and I can see that I have to wipe off at least the front rims after almost every trip with it. (I HATE brake dust buildup on front rims of cars!)

While cleaning them today I was wondering what you guys prefer to use as tire black.

I am NOT a fan of those spray-on products...too messy for me on both the car and the driveway or garage floor.

I would prefer to apply something and wipe it off.
I was using Son of a Gun....basic stuff...then just tried a new Armor All spray product...something about wet tire.

It's OK...but just wondering what you use....
Thanks...

I'm about to try RimWax which is supposted to be for the dust problem. I was told by the head Service man at Beechmont Porsche that products with silicone should not be used as this will attract dust.

Try the spray on foams. No touch and real easy. As for rims try wiping w/ a towel and wear work gloves to keep your hands clean. Occasionally I'll use Mercedes alloy rim sprays w/ a brush designed for rims .
