I use a high pressure spray then S100 Cycle cleaner (I think it is the same stuff as P21S). Applied every other week, I find the dust just doesn't cling as much, and I've never bothered to wax the wheels.

Also I find paper towels or paper napkins seem to have just enough "grab" to remove most of the dust without scratching my wheels. Grab a couple extra next time you're at a fast food joint, and just wipe your front wheel before you get in the car. Takes a few seconds and then you toss em.

Warning: if you have very highly polished or clearcoated wheels, test one small section before doing the paper towel trick on the whole wheel.
