What is a good product to use on a 13 shelby for protecting rims from brake dust? And also for cleaning tires to keep it that black clean look?

I see armour all has a product for both but is there anything better out there?
 
Opti Coat for protection.
A good APC for cleaning the tires.

You are never going to stop brake dust build up but Opti Coat sure make clean up effortless while only using a quality shampoo and water regularly.
 
For tires to get all the dirt and grime off I use Bleach-White for the tires...its gets them ready and real clean for the tire shine.

For the wheels after they are spot on clean I use Meg's UP then finish it up with a coat of light coat of my Zymol wax. What I do really seems to keep brake dust off the wheels and if you hit with a hose the dust just rolls off like it was not even there.
 
I use the Blackfire Crystal Seal on wheels to protect them and make cleanup easier.

For tire cleaning I use ARO (Amazing RollOff) and stiff brush, and then a water based protectant like Optimums Optibond.
 
I use collinite 845 or FinishKare HighTemp for protection on rims.

For tire cleaning, I just use Zep purple degreaser 4:1 from HomeDepot with a Tuf Shine tyre brush, then cover with DuraGloss 253 dressing.
